SUMMARY:Dedication of the Morris & Esther Strug Memorial Garden

SUMMARY:Book Club
DESCRIPTION:(((Semitism))): Being Jewish in America in the Age of Trump by Jonathan Weisman. \n*Coffee and bagels will be served.\n\nSYNOPSIS: “With eloquence and poignancy Weisman shows how hatred can slowly and quietly chew away at the moral fabric of society. We now live in an age where more than ever bigotry and oppression no longer need to hide in fear of reproach. The floodgates have opened. This is much more than a personal response to the bigotry he experienced because of his Jewishness; Weisman has written a manifesto that outlines the dangers of marginalizing and demonizing all minority groups. This powerful book is for all of us.” – Michael Eric Dyson\nIn (((Semitism)))\, Weisman explores the disconnect between his own sense of Jewish identity and the expectations of his detractors and supporters. He delves into the rise of the Alt Right\, their roots in older anti-Semitic organizations\, the odd ancientness of their grievances―cloaked as they are in contemporary\, techy hipsterism―and their aims―to spread hate in a palatable way through a political structure that has so suddenly become tolerant of their views.\n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR: Jonathan Weisman is Deputy Washington Editor of The New York Times and author of the novel\, No. 4 Imperial Lane\, which was a Chautauqua Prize finalist\, Amazon Best Book of the Month\, and Great Group Reads Pick at the Women’s National Book Association. He has reported for The Baltimore Sun\, The Washington Post\, USA Today\, The Wall Street Journal\, and others. He is the father of two teenage daughters\, and lives with fellow writer Jennifer Steinhauer in Washington\, D.C.

Please RSVP to Rabbi Rank (at jonah.rank@gmail.com ) by Wednesday April 24 to join Rabbi Rank for a little NaKh and kosher-for-Passover nosh.
