As a host for Israel's I24 News, Lucy Aharish is very familiar with the day-to-day stories of both conflict and hope in her homeland. Meanwhile, she is living her own duality as the first Arab news presenter on Hebrew-language Israeli television. Aharish will talk about her stereotype-shattering journey of conflict and inspiration, including surviving a terror attack as a child, and being granted the honor of lighting a torch on Israel's Independence Day last year.
