In the past year we have had many diverse programs including a 4 session class led by Rabbi Jonathan Lipnick on Women Yiddish writers, Rabbi Broitman’s 4 session class on antisemitism and speakers such as Anat Hoffman speaking about Women of the Wall, Charlayne hunter-Gault speaking about her newest book, Donald Berwick on Healthcare policy, Susan Suleiman on her new memoir and a 2 session pannel on Democracy in Israel.
We look forward to another year of interesting and active programming.
