Film Screening: Israelism

Please join us for a viewing of “Israelism” – an 85-minute documentary that explores the past, present and future of the relationship between American Jews and Israel. Dozens of American Jewish thinkers, community leaders and activists share stories of falling in love with Israel, and competing visions for a Jewish future, while Israelis and Palestinians describe how their lives are affected by the decisions of a community half a world away. Israelism asks how and why Israel became the cornerstone of American Judaism, what the consequences have been, and what will happen as divisions continue grow.

We will meet in the Sanctuary. Light food will be provided, and a respectful discussion will follow the documentary.
