Fri 6 Nov, 7:30-9:30 pm. According to the Anti-Defamation League, one of the most damaging and lasting anti-Semitic myths involves the relationship between Jews and money. For millennia Jews have been stereotyped as money-grubbing, usurious, and rich. Where we claim Einstein, Marx, and Freud, others see Shylock, Fagin, and Bernie Madoff. There have always been plenty of poor Jews, of course, but it is also true that as an ethnic group, Jews in the U.S. have done exceptionally well financially. Are we proud of this success, or a bit embarrassed? How do these issues play out in our real lives? Some of us grew up rich, some poor, many in between. Some of us are well off today, while others still struggle. In this program, an eclectic group of City Congregation members will reflect o.

Thu 19 Nov, 7:30-9 pm. This past year, worldwide outrage followed the events at Charlie Hebdo and the kosher market in Paris. As #JeSuisCharlie flooded the twitter-sphere, the supermarket attack brought European anti-Semitism into sharp focus. It is a critical time to look at the challenges facing world Jewry. Is anti-Semitism on the rise? What can be done about it? And, perhaps most hauntingly, are the Jews of Europe still safe? A panel of speakers will discuss answers to these questions at the Leventhal-Sidman Jewish Community Center (333 Nahanton Street) in Newton on Thursday, November 19 at 7:30pm. Leading the conversation will be Alan Solomont, former US Ambassador to Spain and Andora (2009-2013) and currently the Pierre and Pamela Omidyar Dean of the Jonathan M. Tisch Col.
