Calling all Lifelong Learners & Jewish Educators!

Please join #SAGESinthe305, the Miami Beach JCC and the UM Holocaust Teacher Institute for an evening of LIVE JEWISH LEARNING with Dr. Dara Horn, award-winning novelist, essayist, scholar of Jewish literature, and three-time National Jewish Book Award winner.

Thursday, October 29 | 7:30 PM at the Miami Beach JCC 4221 Pine Tree Drive, Miami Beach

Antisemitism is often treated as an ancient prejudice or a fringe conspiracy, but what if it's better understood as a lie the world keeps choosing to believe? In this inaugural Sages in the 305 event, we're honored to welcome celebrated author Dara Horn for a conversation about her bold new book, "The Final Solution to the Jewish Question: A Love Story for the Living." Building on her acclaimed People Love Dead Jews, Horn confronts the myths that have fueled hatred for centuries and traces how they surface today, from Holocaust education and anti-Zionism to the age of artificial intelligence. Her deliberately provocative title hides a hopeful argument: that Judaism itself is a 3,000-year movement against tyranny, and that the antidote to the lie is the story we tell about who we are. Part diagnosis, part manifesto, part love letter to Jewish life. Join us and INVITE YOUR FRIENDS!
