In the beautifully written Free As A Jew: A Personal Memoir of National Self-Liberation, the always brilliant and insightful Ruth Wisse chronicled her dynamic and intellectually fulfilling life’s experiences, revealing her growth as both an authoritative and esteemed academic and an independent “influencer” of today’s Jewish conservatives and Israel’s defenders. We are honored to host an in-depth conversation with Ruth discussing how her life experiences came to influence her views on world affairs, politics, growing antisemitism, Diaspora Jewry, education and the state of today’s academy, the two-state solution and Israel’s other struggles for survival, and her vision of how to address current events including the various cultural issues of the day. This will be a special program with one of Diaspora Jewry’s most important thinkers of her generation – and of our time. Consider reading Ruth’s beautiful memoir ahead of the webinar, a copy of which can be purchased on Amazon here ([link removed]
