In Conversation with Wajahat Ali
Hosted By: Temple Israel of Boston
Join Tiferet Israel Boston online for a special conversation between Rabbi Suzie Jacobson and writer, speaker, and award-winning playwright Wajahat Ali.
Discuss Ali’s 2018 article and short film “A Muslim Among Israel Settlers“, documenting his experiences traveling to Israel with The Shalom Hartman Institute’s Muslim Leadership Initiative, and meeting and talking with Jewish Settlers in the West Bank, as well as his new book Go Back to Where You Came From: And Other Helpful Recommendations on How to Become American, one of Amazon’s Best Books of the Year.
Dig into the rise of white nationalism, Islamophobia, and antisemitism, the polarizing debates about Israel and Palestine, and what hopes we can hold for the future, all with boldness, honesty, and humor.
