Poetry for Our Days

Poetry for Our Days
Israeli Poets Respond to October 7

Tuesdays, April 2, 9, & 16 • 7-8PM
 
The calamity of 10/7 has left Israel and the Jewish world in shock and despair. As more horrific details unfold, Israelis are finding themselves less able to talk about it. The expression heard most often these days is “ein milim – there are no words.” And yet, there are Israelis finding words to express pain and anger, despair and abandonment. In our sessions we will read and discuss poetry written by Israelis in response to 10/7. Study with master educator Rachel Korazim, a scholar of the Shalom Hartman Institute in Jerusalem, who specializes in Holocaust education, poetry, and curriculum development in Israel. Rachel will join us over Zoom from her home in Israel.
Zoom link provided upon registration. This is a joint program among Congregation Beth El, TSTI, Oheb Shalom Congregation, and Congregation B’nai Israel.
