Consider the events in the Israel/Palestine conflict that have occurred since Letters to My Palestinian Neighbor was published in 2018. In what ways do you think Halevi would have changed the tone or content of his letters in light of those events, if at all?

Research the Palestinian perspective on the Israel/Palestine conflict. Imagine that you are writing a letter in response to Halevi as a friendly outside observer of both sides of the argument. What would you say?

Consider a prevalent political, social, or religious issue with personal significance. Using Halevi’s literary structure as a model, write a letter to a hypothetical dialogue partner who inhabits the other side of this issue.
