Hosted By: UJA-Federation of New York, The New York Jewish Week
As a reflection on these challenging and complex times, The Jewish Week and UJA invite you to a moderated conversation between David Arnow, author of Choosing Hope: The Heritage of Judaism, and Rabbi Erin Leib Smokler, editor of Torah in a Time of Plague: Historical and Contemporary Jewish Responses — winner of a National Jewish Book Award. Together, they will speak about Jewish wisdom and the power of hope and resilience in light of Jewish history, theology, traditional texts, and ritual.
