Gregory Khalil on Seeing the Whole Truth in a Complicated World


Listen Later

How do we bridge divides when truth is so fiercely contested? In our search for moral clarity, what inner practices can help us hold multiple perspectives in a graceful manner, without collapsing into cynicism or false certainty? And what can we learn—about power, empathy, fairness, and truth—from someone who has stood at the intersection of journalism, faith, and one of the world’s most intractable conflicts?

Find out from Gregory N. Khalil, exclusively in conversation with Dr. Hitendra Wadhwa on Intersections Podcast.

Gregory Khalil is an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Journalism in the Columbia Journalism School at Columbia University in the City of New York. He is the co-founder and President of Telos, a Washington D.C.-based non-profit that equips American leaders and their communities to better engage seemingly intractable conflict. Much of Telos’ work has centered on the role of faith leaders and culture shapers in America’s relationship to Israel/Palestine and the broader Middle East. Prior to founding Telos, Greg was a legal and communications adviser to Palestinian leaders on peace negotiations with Israel. Greg is also a founding member and chair of the board of directors of Narrative 4, a global non-profit that seeks to use story and media to cultivate empathy across divides. He has lectured internationally and his writing has appeared in leading media including The New York Times and The Review of Faith & International Affairs.

In this episode, Gregory reveals:

- Powerful inner practices that can help us navigate contradictions without falling into cynicism or false certainty

- What separates exemplary changemakers from the rest—and what step quietly precedes meaningful action
