Lunch n' Learn

From the moment Moses, Aaron, and Miriam stood at the shores of the Red Sea and sang out, song and poetry have been a core form of expression for our people. In this three part series, we’ll explore the poetry and song that have emerged in the land of Israel from the early state period, until today, with a special focus during the final class on work that has emerged since 10/7. From Yehuda Amichai and Lea Goldberg, to Sami Shalom Chetri and Ayat Abou Shmeiss, our exploration will include voices from both within and outside of the traditional canon, including women, Israeli Arab, and Mizrachi poets and songwriters.
