SUMMARY:Resilience-A Sansei Sense of Legacy
DESCRIPTION:Members Register Here\n\n\nGuests Register Here\n\nDuring World War II\, approximately 120\,000 people of Japanese descent were forcibly moved to and incarcerated in internment camps located in remote areas of the Midwest and western United States. About two-thirds of them were American citizens. \nTour a special exhibition at the Holocaust Museum of eight artists who are Sansei (third-generation) Japanese Americans. The exhibit reflects the impact the imprisonment had from generation to generation after the camps were closed. Much of the work reflects the artists’ pain\, often suppressed by their elders. \nHave lunch – or a snack – with other participants prior to seeing the exhibit. We will meet at Sweet Basil Café (inside Hampton Inn & Suites on Old Orchard Rd in Skokie.) at 11:30 am. For those joining us for lunch\, please email Barbara Berngard.  Participants will pay for admission to the Museum. \n\n\nAdults: $18\nSeniors (65+): $12

SUMMARY:Shabbat as a Spiritual Practice\, with Rabbi Dr. Rivkah (Roberta) Glick
DESCRIPTION:Members Register Here \n\nGuests Register Here\n\nIt may be difficult to be kind and compassionate in the midst of uncertainty\, injustice\, racism\, poverty\, and severe climate crises across the planet. Yet each week we have Shabbat\, our time for taking in all the experiences of the week and a time of consolidation and contemplation. Shabbat can be a day of mindfulness to appreciate the goodness in our lives and our amazing\, beautiful world — a time to refresh\, to recenter\, and to reflect. Every week\, we have the opportunity to cultivate a Shabbat of gratitude and kindness so we can face the world and respond with a wise heart of generosity and forgiveness. \nWe will use Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel’s book\, The Sabbath\, one of the most beautiful of all Jewish books\, as our inspiration and as a gate to open the experience of Shabbat as a transformative journey\, in which Shabbat can be a time to go from doing to being\, as Heschel describes. We will explore how we can use Heschel’s ideas to bring greater meaning and depth to our modern\, fast-paced lives. \nRabbi Dr. Rivkah (Roberta) Glick is a neurosurgeon\, teacher\, mother\, wife\, rabbi\, and pursuer of peace. She began her career working with the poor and taking care of people with brain tumors and severe trauma on the west side of Chicago at Cook County and Mount Sinai Hospitals. Thirty years later\, she took a sabbatical\, in part to immerse herself more fully in the study of Jewish texts and meditation\, here and in Israel. Today\, she is a rabbi\, an important stop on her spiritual path of connection to herself\, to others\, and to the Divine. Her aspiration is to bring kindness and compassion into the world.

SUMMARY:Closing Doors: Jewish Immigration to the United States Before and After 1914 led by Tobias Brinkmann
DESCRIPTION:Members Register Here \nGuests Register Here \nBetween 1880 and 1914\, almost two million Jews from the Russian and Austro-Hungarian empires immigrated to the United States. This migration marks an important shift in modern Jewish history because it turned the United States from a peripheral to a major center of Jewish life. \nBefore 1914\, Congress passed several immigration bills.  While hardly any Europeans were excluded\, non-white migrants were not welcome.  American Jewish leaders protested Chinese exclusion early on because they grasped the threat of nativism in a period of rising antisemitism and calls for immigration restrictions.  In 1917\, Congress overrode President Wilson’s veto and passed the literacy test bill. Jewish leaders were able to mitigate the bill – the test could be administered in Hebrew and Yiddish.   However\, the national origin quota acts\, passed in 1921 and 1924\, drastically reduced Jewish immigration from Eastern Europe. \nTobias Brinkmann is the Malvin and Lea Bank Associate Professor of Jewish Studies and History at Penn State University\, University Park\, PA\, and Director of the Jewish Studies program. Publications: Between Borders: The Great Jewish Migration from Eastern Europe (Oxford University Press\, 2024). Sundays at Sinai: A Jewish Congregation in Chicago (University of Chicago Press\, 2012) – finalist for the National Jewish Book Award 2013; (Editor)\, Points of Passage: Jewish Transmigrants from Eastern Europe in Scandinavia\, Germany\, and Britain 1880-1914 (New York: Berghahn\, 2013).
