Jehan Sadat and Barbara Walters: My Hope for Peace at the 92nd Street Y

http://www.92Y.org/lectures

On the 30th anniversary of the Egypt-Israeli Peace Treaty, the widow of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat talks about her new memoir, My Hope for Peace, with Barbara Walters. As a professor, a peace activist and a former first lady, Jehan Sadat has had a front-row seat to the agonizing cycle of progress and setback in the Middle East. In My Hope For Peace, she shares her husbands principles for peace; sets the record straight on the most persistent and prevalent misconceptions about Islam and explains what it really means to be a Muslim woman today. My Hope For Peace is a clarion call for anyone who longs for a brighter future.

Recorded March 25, 2009 at the 92nd Street Y in New York City.
