Why Be Jewish
- This event has passed.
From Matisyahu to matzo balls, this four–part series will explore modern Jewish identity in America through self-reflection, an exploration of stereotyping, case studies, and classic Jewish texts. The four classes include:
November 17 – You as a Jew
December 15 – Stereotypes Make Life Easy
January 12 – Jewish Foods, Jewish Moods
March 23 – Telling the Passover Story **Due to the blizzard-induced postponement, we will be examining something more timely: The Passover Story.
What do Barbie and Borat have in common? They will both be teachers of Jewish identity for our interactive conversation on Jewish life today and your place in it. Light dinner included.
