Israeli and Palestinian Reactions to Uprisings

I just produced this video for the NYT. The video features Yuval Ben Ami in Tel Aviv, and Fadi Quran in Ramallah. They are both extremely impressive individuals who I enjoyed hanging out with. Besides both being eloquent and smart, I got a sense that their values are also quite similar. I think that is something the media here often tries to cover up because it doesn't fit their tidy narrative. I'm glad the NYT gave me the opportunity to depict two real characters from both sides; separated by politics but with similar aspirations.
