Why have Jews been the target of history’s most persistent and universal hatred? Why does the very word “Jew” evoke such powerful and often negative reactions? What does it mean to be Jewish in 2025? Join renowned scholar and bestselling author Rabbi Joseph Telushkin for an eye-opening exploration of these questions.
Join us for a powerful evening that sheds light on a painful history, while affirming the resilience of the Jewish people and the hope that knowledge, understanding, and courage can overcome even the most deeply rooted prejudice.
6:30 – 7 pm: Social with light refreshments
7 pm: Presentation will begin, followed by book sales and signing
