Beyond Borders: The Arab Israeli Conflict

The Priluck Family Melton Series in partnership with the MJCCA and the Lisa F Brill Institute at Temple Emanu-El presents:

“Beyond Borders: The Arab Israeli Conflict”.

Sundays, 9:30am-11:30

The class will meet for 10 sessions: September 11, 18 and 25; October 30; November 6, 13, 20 and December 4, 11 and 18.

This Scholars course provides students with a strong, text-based historical overview from the late nineteenth century through today. Course material is designed to encourage discussion and debate, and to challenge students to appreciate the basis of the conflicting historical claims made by all sides in the conflict. The complexity of the conflict forces students to grapple with issues of religion, culture, history, politics, economics, identity and survival—all reflected through primary sources, including newspaper articles, poetry, songs, government documents, speeches, photographs and memoirs.Temple Emanu-EL members only $50.
