Discussion Facilitator Dr. Lisa Godwin
Each year we choose a book related to the conference theme.
The 2025 conference theme is
Families in a Time of Social and Political Upheaval:
Lessons from the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
and will be held in Washington, DC, June 16-18, 2025.
The book that we have chosen is
No Way But Forward:
Life Stories of Three Families in the Gaza Strip
by Brian K. Barber, PhD.,
a keynote speaker at the 2025 Groves Conference.
Dr. Barber traces how three ordinary young Palestinian men have experienced life in Gaza over the past thirty years—including the year following October 7, 2023. Their lives have been riddled with oppressive military constraint, violence, humiliation, and loss. Yet along with their parents, wives, and children, they have persevered. These narratives are gripping tales of survival, endurance, and hope. No Way But Forward: LIfe Stories of Three Families in the Gaza Strip is available on Amazon.
Participation in this event is free for Groves Members.
