Scott Blakeman and Dean Obeidallah will present a stand-up comedy show "StandUp for Peace" on Friday, April 17, at 7 p.m. in the Chapel. Blakeman, a Jewish-American and Obeidallah, a Palestinian-American, will present a comedy show that brings Jews, Arabs, Muslims and people from all backgrounds together to laugh, and encourages a dialogue in support of a peaceful, political resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Blakeman and Obeidallah begin the show together, perform their own acts separately, and then reunite at the end for an entertaining and revealing question and answer session. The event, sponsored by Student Assembly, is free and open to the public.
