Prof. George Bisharat is a professor at Hastings
College of the Law, an activist for peace and
justice in the Middle East for 35 years, and a
Palestinian-American. In recent years, Prof.
Bisharat has consulted with the Palestinian
Legislative Council over the structure of the
Palestinian judiciary, reforms in criminal
procedure, and other aspects of legal development.

In this thought-provoking talk, Prof. Bisharat
rejects the current focus on the debate around 1 or
2 states as a solution for a lasting peace between
Israelis and Palestinians. Instead, he argues that
the focus should be on the need for an
international, non-violent movement that addresses
the substantive rights of the 3 main branches of the
Palestinian people-those who are citizens of Israel,
those living under occupation, and refugees.
