ABOUT THIS EVENT:
The meaning of our words is under assault. Can we trust one another, and the language that connects and divides us, to direct us toward truth? Together, we will look at an achingly beautiful passage from Rabbi Isaac Hutner, one of the 20th century’s most creative and inspirational thinkers, who inscribes these questions which are at the heart of today’s political and civil turmoil – directly in the heart of what it means to be a Jew, and a human being. (And, we’ll make use of Harry Frankfurt’s famous Essay “On BS”).
ABOUT THIS SPEAKER:
Rabbi Jason Rubenstein is the Howard M. Holtzmann Jewish Chaplain at Yale, where he serves the university’s diverse and exciting Jewish community. Jason is a native of DC and taught at the Hadar Institute before coming to Yale.
