Join Rabbi Zvi Hirschfield for an exciting discussion with Dr. Rachel Korazim, a master educator who uses close readings of Israeli literature as a vehicle to explore the questions of modern Jewish identity and contemporary Israel. In our discussion of a poem by Yehuda Amichai, Rachel challenges us to question simplistic notions of secularism, nationalism, and Judaism.
