Christa’s journey of curiosity to Jerusalem and Gaza while studying abroad in her father’s homeland of Germany at the tail end of the Cold War opens up a world of joy and heartache that transforms into a lifetime pursuit to make a difference in a land two peoples call home. Through her unique perspective as an American and mother of three Palestinians, we become familiar with both current and historic challenges Palestinians face living in the shadow of the State of Israel. Christa poses thought-provoking questions that are a test to us all as we collectively grapple with how to come together in a place that is increasingly divided in the mind and on the ground.
