Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza w/author Peter Beinart

In this event, Peter Beinart, a prominent academic, journalist, and public intellectual, will explore how the recent war in Gaza has shaped his perspectives on Jewish identity and the prospects for ethically grounded political action in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Drawing from his forthcoming book of the same title, Beinart will examine the complex interplay between personal identity, moral responsibility, and political engagement in one of the world's most significant geopolitical challenges.  

As a much-respected voice in discussions on Israel, Palestine, and American Jewish politics, Beinart has consistently advocated for a nuanced understanding of the conflict. His evolving stance on these issues promises to offer fresh insights into how we understand current events.
