In 2019, two issues of concern to the Jewish community are consistently at the top of the headlines: anti-Semitism and Israel. These words invoke more polarization than ever both inside and outside of the Jewish community. J Street Portland and Temple Beth Israel Brotherhood invite you to a lively conversation with J Street’s Director of Rabbinic and Community Engagement Shaina Wasserman and Professor Steven M. Wasserstrom about what’s behind these headlines and how they shape and are shaped by the 2020 US national election.
