American Jewish Engagement with Israel

How is our American Jewish connection with Israel evolving? What are the challenges and opportunities?

Join us for a robust and compelling discussion, framed by the insights of Dr. Yehuda Kurtzer, a philosopher and the president of the Shalom Hartman Institute of North America. Through his main area of study -- the meaning of Israel to American Jews -- he traces the attitudes of American Jews on the political left and right back to two seminal moments in Jewish history, Emancipation and Enlightenment. 

No charge.
