Join Liron Lavi Turkenich to learn about the ongoing journey of Aravrit, a new writing system that fuses Hebrew and Arabic letters, enabling speakers of both languages to read the same words at once. Through letters and language, the daily tools that communication is built upon, Aravrit sends a powerful message of potential hope. Each person can read in their own language while still acknowledging the other, carrying a message of coexistence, compromise, and inclusion.
