Communities today are navigating complex conversations around religion, identity, and the Middle East. Many of us face a difficult question: how do we engage these topics responsibly, without inflaming division?
Mustapha Ezzarghani offers a rare perspective: an Arab Muslim speaking openly about identity, normalization, and reform from within his own cultural framework. His presentations aim not to persuade audiences what to think, but to deepen understanding, humanize disagreement, and create space for responsible dialogue.
This Zoom-only presentation will include a Q&A and Rabbi Jason Nevarez and time for attendee questions.
Mustapha Ezzarghani is a Moroccan-born author, sociologist, and interfaith dialogue advocate whose work focuses on Arab identity, Muslim–Jewish relations, and coexistence in polarized societies.
He is the Founder and President of the Moroccan–Israeli Friendship Association, a nonprofit initiative advancing grassroots normalization, cultural engagement, and educational dialogue between communities. He speaks internationally to religious, academic, and civic audiences about identity, normalization, and the challenges of constructive disagreement in polarized environments.
