\nJEWS AND
THE AMERICA TO COME
Presented by the Herbert D. Katz Center for A dvanced Judaic Studies at the University of Pennsylvania
\nThe year 2020 has been a transformative one for American society\, but what is Amer ica becoming? And what role do Jews play in the changes underway?
\nEven as the country struggles with a pandemic and massive unemployment\, m any Americans have at the same time been newly awakened to racial injustic e and economic inequality. Much of the change now underway has been tragic \; some of it is hopeful\; and the combination may yet produce a very diff erent America.
\nThe aim of this online series is to draw on the ins ights of scholarship to explore the implications of all these changes for American Jews&mdash\;their role in the changes underway\, and/or the stake they have in them as a community. Through presentations by experts from t he fields of Jewish Studies\, Religious Studies and Political Theory\, the series will address the implications for Jews of the #Metoo movement\, th e continuing struggle against racism\, the prospects for freedom of speech \, the fight against economic injustice\, and the future of America&rsquo\ ;s relationship with Israel.
