SUMMARY:Com­mu­ni­ty One Read with Bruce Feil­er in Con­ver­sa­tion with Rab­bi Angela Buchdahl
DESCRIPTION:on Zoom. \nJoin Jew­ish Book Coun­cil for a Com­mu­ni­ty One Read with Bruce Feil­er in Con­ver­sa­tion with Rab­bi Angela Buch­dahl. \nFeil­er will be dis­cussing his newest book A Time to Gath­er. Since time immemo­r­i­al\, humans have turned to rit­u­al to con­nect us in peri­ods of change. Until today. Birth rit­u­als and com­ing-of-age rit­u­als have plum­met­ed; few­er than half of Amer­i­cans are mar­ried; only one in three is buried. ​“It took us ten thou­sand years to estab­lish cul­tur­al norms around how we mark col­lec­tive life tran­si­tions\,” writes Bruce Feil­er. ​“It took us fifty years to dis­man­tle them.” Can this threat to soci­ety be reversed? \nTo find out\, Feil­er went on a round-the-world rit­u­al road trip\, attend­ing — and par­tic­i­pat­ing in — life rit­u­als in six­teen coun­tries on six con­ti­nents. These spec­ta­cles\, some rarely seen\, include a mass bap­tism in the Vat­i­can\, a trib­al bride price nego­ti­a­tion in South Africa\, an ado­les­cent tooth fil­ing in Bali\, six wed­dings in Las Vegas\, and ten funer­als in Ire­land. \nAngela Buch­dahl is the author of Heart of a Stranger: An Unlike­ly Rab­bi’s Sto­ry of Faith\, Iden­ti­ty\, and Belong­ing and serves as the Senior Rab­bi of Cen­tral Syn­a­gogue in New York City. She was the first woman to lead this flag­ship con­gre­ga­tion and is the first Asian-Amer­i­­can to be ordained as a rab­bi in North Amer­i­ca. Rab­bi Buch­dahl was invit­ed in 2014 and 2023 to share bless­ings for the White House Hanukkah Par­ty and has been fea­tured in dozens of news out­lets — includ­ing Newsweek​’s Most Influ­en­tial Rab­bis. \nEvent is free.  Please register for Zoom link below. \n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Michael Benson\, Hollywood vs. Nazis
DESCRIPTION:What happens when Hollywood becomes the front line in the fight against Hitler? \nJoin us for a fascinating evening exploring the remarkable true story behind Hollywood vs. Nazis\, Hitler’s attempt to turn Hollywood’s “Dream Factory” into a Nazi propaganda machine\, and the secret efforts of Jewish movie moguls to stop him. From the moment Hitler came to power in 1933\, he understood the enormous influence American movies had to shape public opinion. But he underestimated the Jewish studio leaders who recognized the threat and secretly fought back by financing undercover operations to infiltrate pro-Nazi organizations in Southern California. Part history\, part espionage thriller\, Hollywood vs. Nazis reveals a little-known chapter of World War II and the extraordinary role Hollywood played in the fight against fascism. \nIncludes book sale\, signing and light refreshments. \n								\n									Get Tickets

SUMMARY:Phyllis Karas\, Curse of the Blumenthals
DESCRIPTION:What if the secrets your family desperately tried to bury refused to stay buried? \nHear from local author and JCCNS member Phyllis Karas\, a New York Times bestselling author and journalist\, as she explores the haunting true story of the Blumenthal family in The Curse of the Blumenthals. \nSpanning three generations\, the Blumenthals’ story begins with a Jewish immigrant family that builds a life in Providence and Boston\, survives Prohibition\, and finds itself forever changed by tragedy. In 1935\, six family members\, including three children\, are killed by a drunk driver. Years later\, the family’s “golden child\,” Ronnie Blumenthal\, is arrested for murder. \nDecades later\, Karas begins uncovering the long-hidden secrets\, unanswered questions\, and generational trauma surrounding the tragedy. What emerges is a gripping story of crime\, loss\, family\, and ultimately\, the possibility of breaking a terrible cycle of secrets. \nJoin us for an afternoon of true crime\, fascinating family history\, and a remarkable story of secrets uncovered eventually leading to much needed healing across generations. \nIn conversation with Doug Grad\, founder and President of the Doug Grad Literary Agency. \nIncludes book sale\, signing\, and bagels. \n								\n									Get Tickets
