Ono CEO and Founder Discusses Polarization in Israeli Society
Ono Academic College’s CEO and founder, Ranan Hartman, was recently interviewed by Elliott Gotkine, Bloomberg Television's former editor. Among other topics, they covered the issue of the polarization of Israel and how Ono can help bridge these gaps and create a multicultural society.
Gotkine asked Hartman how Israeli society could extrapolate the lessons in multiculturalism learned at Ono Academic College.  Hartman answered that it is too late to start in college. The Ono story must be told to children in kindergarten. Children must hear their own story, as well as those of others and learn that they are all equal.  This doesn’t mean my story is wrong or that I shouldn’t feel proud of my story.  It means that there is room for other stories.  It’s not a zero sum game.  We have to change the Israeli mentality to understand that we aren’t the only ones around the table. We don’t have to become like others, we just need to allow them to sit with us, around the table.
