SUMMARY:Being Jewish Faculty Faced with Anti-Israel Antisemitism
DESCRIPTION:How is it to be a Jewish Professor at a small campus facing hurtful antisemitic anti-Israel words and actions by a significant number of students and faculty\, which becomes worse after Hamas’ barbaric October 7 attack? What do you do? When your approach to art history is examining personal experiences to discern broad cultural implications\, how do you process such antisemitism? \nDavid Raskin\, Ph.D.\, is the Mohn Family Professor of Contemporary Art History at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. He is the author of Donald Judd\, and has contributed to publications from the Tate Modern (London)\, Moderna Museet (Stockholm)\, MCA-Chicago\, the Stedelijk Museum (Amsterdam)\, and Ca’Pesaro (Venice). His scholarship tells stories of art that probe personal experiences for the wider cultural implications.

SUMMARY:Discussion about the book Can We Talk About Israel - Part 1
DESCRIPTION:Join Rabbi London for a two-part discussion of the book\, Can We Talk About Israel? A Guide for the Curious\, Confused and Conflicted by Daniel Sokatch. \nThe Jewish Book Council wrote this review of Sokatch’s book: “Can We Talk about Israel? is a supreme­ly nuanced dis­cus­sion of the Israeli-Pales­tin­ian con­flict\, past and present. It is broad in scope yet detailed in analy­sis\, thought-pro­vok­ing for the well-informed yet acces­si­ble for the new learn­er. It is an impor­tant and need­ed addi­tion to the books on the subject. Sokatch is remark­ably deft at hold­ing mul­ti­ple com­pet­ing nar­ra­tives at once.” \nOn March 17\, we’ll discuss the first half of the book and on April 22\, we’ll discuss the second half of the book. Daniel Sokatch will also be coming to Beth Emet this spring to talk about the book. The date is TBD. \nMembers Register Here  \nNon-Members Register Here \n
