About the Program
How can Jews embrace and express our specificity in a world which so often demands universality? Join Jewish thought-leader and author of Jewish Pride: Rebuilding a People and Reclaiming our Story: The Pursuit of Jewish Pride, Ben M. Freeman, and Skirball Rabbi in Residence, Beau Shapiro, in conversation about the modern Jewish Pride movement. Born out of Freeman's experience with LGBTQ+ Pride, Jewish Pride aims to educate, inspire, and empower Jews to define their own identities and to see their Jewishness as a source of pride, and never shame.
