Israel/Palestine Discussion Group
June 10 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Catherine Fischer, former director of Membership and Philanthropy at RS, and Rabbi Sue Levi Elwell, Professor of Jewish Spirituality at the Graduate Theological Union and visiting Rabbi at RS during Rabbi Maderer’s 2023 sabbatical, recently travelled to Israel and the occupied West Bank. On their trip they visited Masafer Yatta, the Palestinian village repeatedly targeted for demolition by the IDF, which was featured in the Academy Award winning (Best Documentary Feature) film “No Other Land.” They met with co-director Hamdan Ballal among other villagers. Catherine and Rabbi Elwell will join us to discuss their trip and its lessons.
Our events are open to RS members and their invited guests. RSVP to Sophia Schwab. Contact Heshie Zinman.
