Temple Israel Progressive Israel Caucus (TIPIC) Book Group
Join us onsite or online on Tuesday, April 1st, 7:00 pm—8:30 pm for the Temple Israel Progressive Israel Caucus Book Group. The TIPIC Book Group will discuss Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza, a Reckoning by Peter Beinart.
“His [Beinart’s] reach is broad—from the tragedy of today’s Middle East to the South Africa he knows well to events centuries ago—his scholarship is deep, and his heart is big. This book is not just about being Jewish in the shadow of today’s war, but about being a person who cares for justice.” —Adam Hochschild, author of American Midnight and King Leopold’s Ghost
“Judaism is about the universality of justice but the particularity of love.” —Rabbi Jonathan Sachs
