Event Details
Kiddush Lunch and Program
Following 10:30am Shabbat morning service, we will have a Noon Kiddush lunch (please rsvp to the Temple office so that we prepare enough food) and learning:
GREAT VOICES, CIVIL RIGHTS, AND JEWS IN THE AMERICAN SOUTH
Have you ever wondered what some of the leading American rabbis handled pivotal world events from the pulpit? What did American rabbis tell their congregants about topics such as the rise of Adolph Hitler, the outbreak of World War II, the struggle for Civil Rights in the 1950s and 1960s, and so forth? Dr. Zola, will introduce us to some of Judaism's most remarkable rabbinical leaders. This will be a rare opportunity for you to actually hear a series of remarkable vocal recordings (digitized with visuals added) of several towering rabbinic voices, all of which come from the AJA's extraordinary historical collection. This will be your chance to listen to sermonic voices that you may know by reputation - but have never actually heard.
Scholar-in-Residence Weekend December 9-11, 2016 In Partnership with the Jewish Federation of Greater El Paso featuring Dr. Gary P. Zola:
Executive Director of The Jacob Rader Marcus Center of the American Jewish Archives(AJA) and the Edward M. Ackerman Family Distinguished Professor of the American Jewish Experience & Reform Jewish History at Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion (HUC-JIR) in Cincinnati.
