iEngage: Together and Apart—The Future of Jewish Peoplehood

with Rabbi Steven Wernick

Jun 27 2024, 7:30PM to 8:30PM in the Reuben & Helene Dennis Museum and Zoom.
NOTE: This event has already occurred.

Our newest iEngage video curriculum explores one of the most pressing issues facing the Jewish world today–how we move from being a people with no permanent home to one with two permanent homes.

Through video lectures, interviews and textual sources, this 14-unit course addresses the complex features of Jewish peoplehood and the contemporary challenges to the Jewish people in an era in which we have moved from having no home to having two different, vibrant, homes in Israel and in North America.

The curriculum examines the forces dividing the Jewish people today, including nationalism, antisemitism, dual-loyalty, and identity politics; and it imagines new conceptual frameworks that can help sustain and grow the story of our people for a new millennium.
