SUMMARY:Hot Topics:  Jews\, The Election\, and The Media
DESCRIPTION:At this pivotal moment in a U.S. election year\, join Rabbi Ron Symons\, our Senior Director of Jewish Engagement\, for a facilitated conversation that will touch on some of these questions: \n\nWhat is the history of how Jews have served in public office?\nHow has the media portrayed this?\nHow does this moment in history\, given the increased Jew-hatred (i.e. anti-Semitism)\, compare to previous moments?\n\nOur conversation will be all the richer because of your presence and/or participation. Neighbors of all backgrounds are welcome. \nRon joins the Shames JCC as a facilitator of neighbors learning and living in community with one another across real and perceived differences amplifying our shared humanity. He is a weaver of spirituality with a realistic and optimistic vision of community\, and welcomes you to weave with him.
