This six session course delves into the critical events of 1947 and 1967—building upon the 1917 Balfour Declaration—as key moments when Zionism inspired new perspectives on Jewish identity for future generations. It invites Jews to participate in an open and diverse discussion about Jewish identity, community, ethics, and theology, especially as they relate to nationhood, land, sovereignty, Jerusalem, occupation, and moral boundaries.
