With the war in Gaza ongoing, Israeli hostages still held by Hamas, a new administration in Washington, D.C., concerns about Iran, and antisemitic incidents in the U.S. continuing to rise, how do we make sense of this moment we are in? The Baltimore Jewish Council and The Associated are honored to be joined by Dr. Tal Becker for an off the record conversation* about some of the most pressing issues facing Israel and American Jewry today.

A Q&A session will follow Dr. Becker’s talk.
