    Dr. Leonard Grob is Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at Fairleigh Dickinson University. For the past three decades he has focused his research in the areas of Holocaust Studies and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Together with a Palestinian colleague, Lenny has authored a book entitled Teen Voices From the Holy Land: Who Am I To You? He has also co-edited a volume on the responses of Holocaust scholars to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. As a member of a U.S. think tank on the conflict, Lenny is actively engaged in meeting UN diplomats to discuss proposals for peace in the region.

Sponsored by Rockland for a Just Peace in Palestine/Israel (R4JP),  a local group that honors equally the lives of all Palestinian and Israeli people. We hold in our hearts all those who have been killed, injured or traumatized by the conflict. We pursue an end to the illegal occupation and siege of the Palestinian people and land. We seek a just peace.
