Overview
Throughout this Fellowship, we’ve examined the major forces, players, and dynamics shaping the Middle East. Now we are going to the “street level.” What are the conversations in traditional and non-traditional media about the issues we’ve explored? And what do they mean for the future path and direction of the Middle East? In this final session, Hayvi Bouzo (bio above) will give us a unique insight into the public discourse both in traditional and non traditional media revealing the hopes, fears, and trends playing out in Arab discourse today .
This coming Sunday, May 4th at 10:00 am Eastern Time will be Session Twelve, our last session before the DC Conference on May 18th!
