The Jewish American Paradox Embracing Choice in a Changing World

Thursday, March 30 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm
Zoom CA United States

Who should count as Jewish in America? What should be the relationship of American Jews to Israel? Can the American Jewish community collectively sustain and pass on to the next generation a sufficient sense of Jewish identity? The situation of American Jews today is deeply paradoxical. Jews have achieved unprecedented integration, influence, and esteem in virtually every facet of American life. But this extraordinarily diverse community now also faces four critical and often divisive challenges: rampant intermarriage, weak religious observance,…

Jewish Tunisia At a Crossroads of Civilization

Sunday, April 2 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Zoom CA United States

Tunisia, the former seat of Cartaghe's empire, has been home to different Jewish communities for more than 2000 years.

Rafram will take us through the different elements of the complex Jewish layer of Tunisia, which took a fateful turn in 1967 after the Six-Day War. He will talk about how Jewish life looks today in Tunisia and about his work as a…

Egypt, the Exodus, and the Passover Story

Monday, April 3 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Zoom CA United States
Free

We all know the story of the Exodus – we hear each year in the Torah reading, we discuss it yearly at our sedars, and we have our conceptions of illustrations firmly embedded in our minds-eye. But when we look at the story through the lens of Egypt, with actual Egyptian artifacts, what can we see? Not the pyramids, and not the chain-gang slave marches of Hollywood, rather a glimpse of life, a peak at what could be understood in…

Pharaoh in Canaan Egyptian Presence in Israel

Sunday, April 9 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Zoom CA United States
Free

The name “Canaan,” which derives from the Bible and from ancient Egyptian and Near Eastern records, generally refers to the region of present-day Israel, western Jordan, Lebanon, and coastal and southern Syria and is more or less equivalent to the modern term “Levant.” Ancient texts from the region indicate that its population was of Semitic origin. The earliest mention of Canaan and Canaanites dates from the eighteenth century BCE, but the terms are now often applied to the region and…

“I’m Sorry I ate Your Fish” The Sturgeon Controversy and the Fish that Divided the Ashkenazic World

Tuesday, April 11 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm
Zoom CA United States
Free

The debate over the kashrut of the sturgeon in turn of the 19th century Hungary began as a relatively minor Halachic dispute. Within a couple of years it erupted into a full-blown war of words replete with denunciations and threats of excommunication. Beyond the original fish question, at stake in this explosive controversy was the dynamic nature of Jewish law and whether or not long-established conventional tools of halachic-based innovation were still acceptable in the modern world. In the end,…

The Jews of Summer Summer Camp and Jewish Culture in Postwar America

Sunday, April 16 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Zoom CA United States
Free

In the decades directly following the Holocaust, American Jewish leaders anxiously debated how to preserve and produce what they considered authentic Jewish culture, fearful that growing affluence and suburbanization threatened the future of Jewish life. Many communal educators and rabbis contended that without educational interventions, Judaism as they understood it would disappear altogether. They pinned their hopes on residential summer camps for Jewish youth: institutions that sprang up across the U.S. in the postwar decades as places for children and…
