SUMMARY:Ghosts of a Holy War\, Journalist and Author\, Yardena Schwartz
DESCRIPTION:Ghosts of a Holy War\, Journalist and Author\, Yardena Schwartz\, in Conversation with Rabbi Matthew D. Gewirtz\nWhen a family in Memphis\, Tennessee\, discovers a box of century-old letters in their attic\, a journey begins: not only to learn about the young man who wrote the letters from the holy city of Hebron in British Mandate Palestine\, but about the massacre that took his life in 1929. Award-winning journalist Yardena Schwartz draws from these letters\, along with extensive research and wide-ranging interviews of Israelis and Palestinians now living in Hebron\, to tell a timely\, captivating narrative. By illuminating the echoes of 1929 in Hamas’s massacre of October 7\, 2023\, Schwartz vividly illustrates how little has changed—and how much of our perspective must change if peace is ever to come to this tortured land and its people\, who are destined to share it. \nWe are grateful to Robin and Andrew Shainberg for their generosity in sponsoring this event.
