Yardena shares her personal journey from Jewish day school in the U.S. to making Aliyah and living in Israel for a decade, and how a pivotal class at Columbia Journalism School led her to investigate the complex history of Hebron. Together, Shai and Yardena delve into the city’s past as a beacon of coexistence between Jews and Muslims, the realities of segregation and conflict today, and the often-overlooked nuances of Hebron’s history. Yardena recounts her eye-opening experiences reporting in Hebron, the significance of the 1929 massacre, and the ongoing effects of disinformation and incitement in the region.
