CHICAGO — A pastor offers a blessing for “Peace in Palestine,” during a benediction wrapping up the third night of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

“Let there be peace tonight, peace in Palestine, peace for Palestinians, peace for Israelis,” says William Emmanuel Hall.

Haill is joined by interfaith minister Tahil Sharma who is wearing a Palestinian keffiyeh.

Most of the attendees had left the arena by the time the pair arrived on stage.
