Shalom Portland October 28 2009 - Hand in Hand, Hand to Hand, and Mark Rosenblum

Hand in Hand     

Since 1997 Hand in Hand has been establishing integrated Jewish/Arab public schools in Israel.  We speak with Lee Gordon about these bilingual schools, the effects of integrated education on the pupils, their families, and the neighborhoods where the schools have been founded.
