100 Jewish Men

2022-2023

100 Jewish Men is a group of men dedicated to improving themselves and each other as men, fathers, husbands, brothers, sons, friends, and Jews. Through controversial, thought-provoking speakers and small group discussions, we will explore what usually remains unspoken in men’s lives at work and at home. We have an incredible year planned, and we hope you choose to be part of it. 

November Program:

This month we welcome Charles Pulman, speaking on "Responding to the Palestinian Emerging Strategy Against Israel."  With the evolving spread of antisemitism/anti-Israelism as promoted by BDS and others, we are witnessing a change in the strategy of the Palestinian campaign against Israel. While once there was the slogan of “Two State Solution” that slogan has now changed to “From the River to the Sea—Free, Free Palestine.” The meaning of this new slogan and the responsibility we as Jews and Zionists have to respond is the subject of this talk.

Wednesday, November 9 | Dinner at 6:30 pm ($12/pp) | Program at 7:00 pm
