Fighting for a Different Israel: With the New Israel Fund in Israel and the West Bank
Sunday, September 29, 2024 • 26 Elul 5784
10:00 AM - 11:00 AMThis past May, Ken Moss, a member of Rodfei Zedek and professor of Jewish history at the University of Chicago, had the chance to join a tour of Israel and the West Bank led by the New Israel Fund.
Over the course of a week, in Beer Sheva, Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Nazareth, and in the south Hebron hills of the West Bank, the tour participants heard from dozens of organizers and activists working – as they see it – to salvage and strengthen Israel’s democratic institutions.
Ken will talk about this trip and the work these organizations and activists are doing, share some observations about the larger situation they are facing as they see it, and seek to foster the sort of respectful and informed discussion that distinguishes our community’s ongoing engagement with the future of Israel, so fraught and so important to so many of us.
