The Choosing People: A Jewish Learning Session on Judaism and Democracy

This Election Season session will explore the relationship between Jews, Judaism, and Democracy vs. Authoritarianism, and equip us with inspiration for taking action through the democratic process. We'll explore questions like: Why do Jews seem to love democracy so much? What is the Jewish view of authoritarian power? What does Judaism say about justice, freedom, and diversity of opinion?

This is the first in a series of informal Jewish learning opportunities with Rabbi Josh Weisman, our Senior Jewish Educator.

Appropriate for all levels; no prior experience or knowledge of Hebrew necessary.
