On Saturday March 1st, while world leaders met behind closed doors, 6 young Americans and 7 young Iraqis took part in a historic dialogue. At Downtown Community Television Center (DCTV), a loft in lower Manhattan, and at the Orfali Art Gallery in Baghdad these youths were able to meet face to face. Transcending time zones and national borders they spoke freely as war approached. For more on Walid and Saif, two of the Iraqi participants, click here.
