Description

How have American Jews influenced religious life and the political order in the United States? Or have they? A discussion of the development of Jewish spiritual and civic life in America - the struggles, the missed opportunities and the potential. And why are Jews disproportionately concentrated in one political camp? We explore the trends in Jewish life that resulted in that circumstance, and anticipate future trends as well. Where have Jews been a positive influence? Sponsored by Becky and Avi Katz, l'iluy nishmat Yanah ben Harav Aryeh Leib a"h.
