Choosing Authenticity: Living the Jewish American Dream

For generations, Jews have strived for acceptance. From our neighbors, from our communities, from the world. Where acceptance eluded us, we tried assimilation. For centuries the American Jewish journey was defined by the struggle to balance tradition & identity with compromise & integration. Now perhaps, it is time to try a third option: authenticity. It is time for us to shine and succeed as Jews, and to make no apology for who we are. Love this episode and want to show your support? Contribute here.
