Podcast: Jewish Crossroads – Jewish Identity in Times of Crisis

Podcast: Jewish Crossroads – Jewish Identity in Times of Crisis

A new podcast hosted by noted Israeli journalist Tamar Ish Shalom focuses on the impact of the October 7th events and the ongoing war on the Jewish community in the United States.

Over the past year, unprecedented waves of anti-Israel protests have swept across the globe, including in the United States. On college campuses and beyond, voices condemning Israel – and even questioning its very right to exist – have grown louder.

Renowned Israeli journalist Tamar Ish Shalom will embark on a journey to engage with leaders and key figures in American Jewry to analyze how the war in Israel is reshaping American Jewish identity. Together, they will explore the challenges and opportunities facing American Jews and what the future holds for their relationship with Israel, especially against the backdrop of political developments in both the U.S. and Israel.
