Louisville Melton “Jews In America” class with Rabbi Miles
November 9, 2023 @ 9:15 am - 10:45 am
An event every week that begins at 9:15 am on Thursday, repeating until May 16, 2024
“Jews in America” – Our version of a Jewish-American “Stuff You Missed in History Class”! Learners will discuss seminal developments in American life, such as the Jewish contributions to American culture, American literature, and the Civil Rights Movement, through the lens of Jews straddling their status as both insiders and outsiders. The course will also examine antisemitism and the Holocaust, and the changing place of Zionism in the shaping of Jewish American identity. Sharing tales from immigrants, their children, and grandchildren, learners will debate the meaning of this ongoing saga.
Thursday mornings – 9:15 AM – 10:14 AM – August 24, 31, September 7, October 12, 19, 26, November 2, 9, 16, 30, December 7, 14, February 8, 15, 22, 29, March 7, 14, 21, 28, April 4, 11, May 9, 16, 2024.
