SUMMARY:Kulanu Discussion on Antisemitism
DESCRIPTION:Since Oct. 7\, 2023\, antisemitism has seen a concerning rise in many parts of the world\, often manifesting through heightened hostility towards Israel. \nIt should be noted that criticism of the Israeli government is not necessarily antisemitic\, but a question of: “When does a specific action or sentiment become antisemitic.” \nThis increase in negative opinions is frequently expressed through the spread of harmful stereotypes about Jewish people\, and through the delegitimization of Israel’s right to exist. Some individuals and groups have used criticism of Israeli government policies as a cover for broader attacks on Jews\, falsely equating all Jews with the actions of the Israeli state. \nAdditionally\, there has been a notable surge in antisemitic rhetoric at political rallies\, on social media platforms\, and within academic and cultural spaces. This trend not only exacerbates tensions at home but also contributes to the rise of hate and division globally\, ultimately fueling a dangerous climate of prejudice that impacts both Israelis and Jews worldwide. \nJoin us at this program to hear the thoughts of an esteemed panel discussion (Rabbi David Edleson\, Alan Steinweis\, Dr. Felicia Kornbluh\, and David Geddes)\, followed by a Q&A discussion in the OZ Sanctuary.   \nBagels and coffee at 9am in the social hall. \nPlease Register Here \n\nBios \nAlan Steinweis is Professor of History and Raul Hilberg Distinguished Professor of Holocaust Studies at UVM\, where he has taught since 2009. He is the author of four books about Nazi Germany and the editor of ten additional volumes. He has served as a guest professor at several German universities and at the Ben Gurion University of the Negev\, and has held the Levine Senior Invitational Fellowship at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington. \nDavid Geddes is currently president of Temple Sinai and board member of Shalom Alliance.vHe started as an academic anthropologist/archeologist\, then veered off course into a career in corporate communications and consulting for 30 years. He earned a B.A. magna cum laude in Social Studies from Harvard\, an M.B.A. from the University of Kansas\, a masters from the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (Paris)\, and a Ph.D. in anthropology from the University of Pennsylvania. David and his wife live in the south end of Burlington and on a lake in Minnesota for the summer. They have four children and ten grandchildren. \nDr. Felicia Kornbluh is Professor of History and Director of Jewish Studies at the University of Vermont. They are the author of 3 books and scores of scholarly and journalistic articles. \nRabbi David Edelson D.Div. has been the spiritual leader of Temple Sinai in South Burlington since 2018. He was the spiritual leader of Bethlehem Hebrew Congregation in New Hampshire from 2016-2018. Prior to that time\, he was the rabbi for Hebrew Association for the Deaf in New York for 25 years.

SUMMARY:Shabbat Morning Services
DESCRIPTION:Our Shabbat morning service is traditional egalitarian with new melodies and kavannot (spiritual intentions) introduced and incorporated. \nFollowing services\, we often host a Kiddush – a lunch donated by synagogue members or b mitzvah families\, where all are welcome. Saturday morning services begin at 9:15 AM. \nOur morning service will feature our Shabbat Village: \n– An intentional place for families\, children and anyone to schmooze and be together during the time of Shabbat services \n– No pressure to join in the service (though of course all are welcome to attend as much or little as works for you) \n– Families may access the playground\, gardens and trails \n– Everyone is invited to the kiddush (meal) afterward (when applicable) \n– Children’s books and a video feed of services will be provided. Currently\, children will need to be accompanied by their adult(s). Parents may choose to team up – it takes a village! \nTorah Study typically takes place at 8:30 am before services. Check our calendar for details.

SUMMARY:Special Kiddush Discussion about The Song At the Sea (Exodus 15) by Visiting Scholar Judith Taylor
DESCRIPTION:Through the centuries\, rabbis and scholars have noted the striking arrangement of the words of The Song at the Sea (Exodus 15) but there have been few commentaries about the final three lines of this epic poem\, even though these lines provoke intriguing questions. \nThe Song at the Sea is an ancient example of concrete poetry\, and broadens the scope of what we understand as midrash. \nShe is thrilled to lead this discussion while attendees enjoy a shabbat kiddush (meal). Her hope is to supplement the pleasure — and nourishment! — of the meal with some spirited reflection. \nJudith Taylor is a teacher\, writer and visual artist with a particular interest in the questions and stories that lead us home.  \n  \n\nThis special Shabbat Kiddush is being graciously sponsored by the Greenspoon Foundation \n\n
