The American Jewish Community Tent (Virtual)
The purpose of this special TRS Tent is to probe perspectives on the future of Judaism in the United States through the lens of the concept of “diaspora.” The central question will be, “Where is the American Jewish community in the United States heading in the twenty-first century?” Issues to be covered might include sources of American Jewish identity, the disconnect of younger people with established Jewish institutions, cohesion vs. division, the impact of antisemitism, and comparison with other diasporas. We will examine these issues in weekly themed discussions on the basis of a combination of selected core readings and respectful, facilitated discussion.
Organizer: Dr. Gerson Sher
