Special Program  

Lunch With the Rabbi
Thursday, March 18th at 12:30 pm
at CBD (bring your own lunch)
March Topic: Howard Zinn: A Jewish People’s History…
There aren’t many people who change the way we look at and think of ourselves. Howard Zinn (1922-2010) was one of them. The unconventional history professor, who put the “revision” in “Revisionist History,” turned the American story upside down with his groundbreaking and still controversial work, “A People’s History of the United States.”
We’ll look at and discuss passages from this now-classic text that describe the American Jewish experience –from Ellis Island to suburbia, from sweat-shop unionists to Julius and Ethel Rosenberg
