Transforming Jewish Education - Naya Lekht

What this episode covers

Dr. Naya Lekht and Cantor Eyal Bitton discuss the need for a transformation to Jewish education. What relationship does the typical American Jewish student have with Israel? What should it be? What is flawed about how most educational institutions approach Jewish education and Zionism? How do we build strong Jews who know Jewish history, who are proud, and who are equipped to handle some of the challenging views that are held in the society around us?
