Jewschool co-sponsors Love, Hate & the Jewish State 3
Jewschool co-sponsors the third in this series of dialogues on the intersection of social justice and Israel. Themed “What’s Jewish about a Jewish state?” this dialogue couldn’t be better timed. With the Gaza flotilla still all over the news and with old Jews talking about young Jews’ non-attachment to Israel, it seems to be more on our minds these days than normally.

Love, Hate and the Jewish State 3.0: What’s Jewish about a Jewish state?
Thursday, June 24 at 7:00 pm
The JCC in Manhattan
334 Amsterdam Ave at 76th Street
Cost $10
Do your social justice values impact the way that you relate to Israel as the Jewish state?
Social justice and Israel are often polarizing and separate conversations. Israel’s Jewish character affects government policy, life-cycle events, state symbols, and everyday life for both Jews and non-Jews.
Join us for the third in a series of highly interactive, non-persuasive, open discussions with a diverse group of people in their 20s and 30s. The program will be followed by a reception.
Hosted by Joel Chasnoff, Comedian and Author of The 188th Crybaby Brigade: A Skinny Jewish Kid from Chicago Fights Hezbollah

If you’re as old as the state in question, you’ll definitely be stopped at the door.

So no Reform or Conservative Jews?
