This week’s Flicker is from our Connect for Peace street happenings, with a quote from our founder and directress Joumana Rizk: "Look into the eyes of someone you don’t know, look deeply. Tell them, with your words or silently: I see you."
Telling another "I see you" is the underpinning of our Connect for Peace events, as Joumana continually asks the participants to turn to someone and look deeply into their eyes to truly see and recognize them as they are.
Wishing you a great start to your weekend.
