The Portuguese Jewish Experience: Its Influence on The Americas

Join us for a complimentary lecture by visiting scholar Rabbi Peter Tarlow entitled The Portuguese Jewish Experience: Its Influence on The Americas.

The lecture will take place on Tuesday, December 19, 7:30 pm, at Chabad, 1827 Ponce de Leon Blvd, Coral Gables.

RSVP: ChabadGables.com/lecture.

Rabbi Tarlow will address the history of the Portuguese Jewish experience and how that experience provides important lessons for American Jewry. Tarlow will not only delve into the impact of the Spanish and Portuguese Inquisitions on Modern Twenty-first Jewish life, but demonstrate how many who fled from Spain to Portugal and then to the New World are very much part of the current Sephardic return to Judaism.

He will also touch upon lessons that American Jews need to learn in these trying times and how the Portuguese Jewish story is not only one of past tragedy but also of future hope and rebirth.

This lecture is brought by Eugene and Barbara Rostov.

Israel at Your Kitchen Table: Strategies for Talking With Teens

WEBINAR: Thursday, November 2, 8-9:15 PM

Mother and son

Join Moving Traditions for an honest one-hour conversation about how parents and teens can keep talking about the war in Israel and Gaza even as we may find ourselves with very different sources of information, peer groups, and possible responses to the ongoing war.

Moving Traditions CEO Shuli Karkowsky will sit down with a panel of experts to talk about the psychology behind how teens process the news, strategies to foster discussion when you agree and when you don't, and how to set boundaries for discourse and root those boundaries in love. The panel will include: • Dr. Julie Hirschfeld, a psychologist and parent coach • Dr. Jonathan Golden, Director of Drew University’s Center on Religion, Culture & Conflict • Rabbi Daniel Brenner, Moving Traditions' VP of Education • Emily Levine, a Kol Koleinu Teen Feminist Fellow who attends Scarsdale High School in NY and Westchester Reform Temple

Israel at War: An Urgent Town Hall Meeting With Our Elected Officials

Thursday, November 2 at Noon on Zoom

Event banner

The horrific, unprovoked attack by Hamas terrorists on October 7 brought massive devastation, destruction and death to more than 1,400 innocent people, and more than 200 Israelis are still being held hostage in Gaza. The people of Israel are fighting for the safety and security of our Jewish homeland, nothing less.

It is important to know that the Jewish people are not alone right now and that we have the support of all people of good will, and — in particular — the men and women who represent us. Please join our four South Florida Federations and other Jewish community organizations for an opportunity to hear firsthand from our communities’ elected officials at this critical moment.
