LET'S HAVE A DEBATE!

SESAME is proposing a formal debate on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and is searching for student or faculty debaters ready and willing to represent the Israeli point of view.

We believe that vigorous and interactive discussion deepens the quality of discourse on campus and is essential in fulfilling the ideals of a democratic republic. A formal debate is a healthy place to express honest disagreements and challenge individual and collective assumptions.

We have yet to finalize any format or the parameters of the topic - so we are soliciting any and all suggestions!

We have already volunteered the idea at a recent Zionist meeting and were declined.

If you have strong and clear opinions on what we view as the Israeli occupation of historic Palestine, please contact us ASAP. We need your help in elevating the public discourse!

If you’re interested please contact Michelle @ SESAME or respond on tesccrier:
