February 28: Open Conversation about Israel/Palestine

Some call this topic the third rail of Jewish life in our time. The hope is that we can begin a discussion of this complex, difficult issue in a respectful, safe, and open environment. Bring an open heart. Come listen and share. And stay for brunch…We won’t solve this issue. Let’s see what does happen…

Facilitated by Ron Opher & Elyse Seidner-Joseph.
Bring something to share for pot-luck brunch.

Suggested reading (long): My Promised Land by Ari Shavit–might be the best and most poignant, personal and well-researched book on this topic that I (and many others) have read….
