What: Three authors of the newly-published book, Cultures and Contexts of Jewish Education, will offer brief insights about Jewish education – then, now, and tomorrow. Moderator Jane Eisner, Editor-in-Chief of The Forward, will facilitate a conversation among the authors – Barry Chazan, Robert Chazan, and Benjamin M. Jacobs – and pose questions challenging assumptions and probing deeper into what the future of Jewish education might look like.
