SUMMARY:Zionism and Anti-Zionism: The History of Two Opposing Ideas
DESCRIPTION:For the first time in many decades\, the debate between Zionism and anti-Zionism seems to be at the center of public discourse throughout America and the West. But what are the fundamental beliefs\, assumptions\, and narratives behind these two opposing ideas? Why do some embrace the idea of a state for the Jewish people\, while others so passionately resist it? Rabbi Ellie Steinman will lead this class that will include specialized content from Dr. Einat Wilf—a former member of Israel’s parliament and a scholar of Zionist thought—and Zoé Tara Zeigherman a filmmaker and former Tikvah fellow. No prior knowledge is necessary as\, together\, we explore this topic together.
