In an ongoing global Jewish crisis with unknown highs and lows still yet to come, the Jewish people need clarity, hope, and resilience. We can find all of this within the Jewish story. In this 90-minute experience, we will start with a framing, placing this period within a global and historical Jewish context. We will look at "The Story That Broke" on October 7, and how to mend it through identifying and then harnessing the central elements of Jewish resilience. 

The framing will focus on American Jewry's and Israelis' two separate responses to the Holocaust, and will offer an additional response that can serve as a necessary shared answer for our generation in the face of the current global Jewish crisis. Using Jewish history and psychology around narrative, hope, and resilience, this session offers a personal and collective pathway towards bringing about a better and more resilient shared future.

This session will include an interactive workshop, where we will unpack our experiences from this period, and identify and activate our own "resilience muscles" using the stories we were told by and about our survivor grandparents and parents. Participants will build their “peoplehood muscles” by being in dialogue with others and having the opportunity to articulate and receive diverse and shared experiences.
