POP-UP – Voices of Survival: Writings from the October 7 Hostages and their Families

**Instructor: Rebecca Starr**

In Eli Sharabi’s new best-selling book,
[_Hostage_](https://www.amazon.com/Hostage-Eli-Sharabi/dp/0063489791), we
learn of his experiences as a captive in Gaza for 491 days. The personal
narratives of former hostages and their loved ones are important to absorb as
we try to comprehend the significance of their experiences. We will read
excerpts from his book.

Join Rebecca Starr for a powerful and compassionate exploration of the poetry
and prose of Israeli hostages, like Eli Sharabi, who were kidnapped from
Israel on October 7, 2023. Through their own words, and in the words of their
families and friends, we’ll reflect on how individuals relay their experiences
in captivity.

**This session offers a space to honor their stories and engage in meaningful
conversation about the human spirit and the power of Jewish peoplehood.**
Tuition: $18.

Families Forum._
