SUMMARY:God: It's Complicated
DESCRIPTION:Who\, or what\, is God? Well\, it depends who you ask! Join Rabbi ArianaSilverman for a 5-part course exploring different perspectives on God. \nIf you’re not sure what you believe\, or if what you believe feels differentfrom what you’ve read in the Torah or our prayer book\, you’re not alone. Infact\, theologians have presented very different understandings of God over thecourse of our history. In this class\, we’ll explore some of those theologiestogether. Maybe your understanding of God will become a little clearer\, orperhaps more complicated – in a good way! \nStudents are encouraged to get a copy of _Finding God: Selected Responses(Revised Edition)_  by Rifat Sonsino and Daniel Syme. \nRegistration is available at a sliding scale from $54-$180. This registrationfee covers your enrollment for all five sessions\, with snacks provided at eachmeeting. Cost should not be a barrier to participation. For financialassistance\, please email Marisa at mahoney@downtownsynagogue.org. \nClass schedule is as follows: \nThursday\, May 7 \nThursday\, May 14 \n*no class on May 21 – join us at Tikkun Leil Shavuot instead!* \nThursday\, May 28 \nThursday\, June 4 \nThursday\, June 11 \nAll classes will be held from 7:00-8:15pm \nOrganized by: Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/15584

SUMMARY:“Dual Identities\, " Book Launch Event by Arthur Horwitz
DESCRIPTION:A Faux Photo. A Heavy Burden. Two Lives\, Forever Intertwined.\n“You hear nothing!” his mother shouts. But like many young children of Holocaust survivors\, Arthur hears too much. And his mother\, Sally Finkelstein Horwitz\, has a lot to say. About heroism and horror. Resilience and remorse. Antisemitism and spineless American Jews.\nHiding in closets or a bathtub\, Arthur absorbs the tales she shares with friends and other survivors. One day\, seeking to swipe a few bucks\, Arthur discovers an iconic Holocaust image of a terrified boy tucked in among the other photos in the sleeves of his mother’s wallet. “Who’s this?” he demands to know. She insists it’s her little brother Meier\, who was murdered by the Nazis. But Arthur knows it isn’t. The photo further cements his growing understanding that he’s been saddled with the responsibility of living two lives—his and the one Meier never had. It’s a burden that will shape Arthur’s life\, family\, and media career.\nDual Identities: Living in Meier’s Shadow removes filters previously inhibiting children of survivors from sharing their own unvarnished growing-up-in-America stories while providing new insights on the impact of intergenerational trauma and the path to coping\, healing\, reconciliation\, and remembrance.
