Join Or Haneshamah to hear journalist Peter Beinart. As the Jewish new year approaches, in this season of collective teshuvah, or returning to the path of spiritual and moral growth, self-education, and justice, we contemplate what Jews – in Israel and in the Diaspora – can and should do to rectify the historic wrong that is the Nakba.

Peter Beinart is editor-at-large of Jewish Currents and hosts the The Beinart Notebook, a weekly series of newsletters and interviews. He is a professor of journalism and political science at the Newmark School of Journalism at the City University of New York. A former editor of The New Republic, he has also written for Haaretz, Time, The New York Times, The New York Review of Books and The Guardian. He is also the author of three books including The Crisis of Zionism.
