GRS Reads: As a Jew: Reclaiming Our Story from Those Who Blame, Shame, and Try to Erase Us

Bring your own lunch and enjoy a lively discussion about the recently published book, As a Jew: Reclaiming Our Story from Those Who Blame, Shame, and Try to Erase Us, by Sarah Hurwitz.  This highly readable book is an “urgent exploration of how antisemitism has shaped Jewish identity and how Jews can reclaim their tradition, by the celebrated White House speechwriter and author of the critically acclaimed Here All Along.  At thirty-six, Sarah Hurwitz was a typical lapsed Jew. On a whim, she attended an introduction to Judaism class and was astonished by what she discovered: thousands of years of wisdom from her ancestors about what it means to be human. That class sparked a journey of discovery that transformed her life.”  Click here to read more about the book, available in local bookstores and online. in print and audio versions.
