As the Jewish world processes the October 7 massacre and the ensuing worldwide wave of antisemitism, we seek to understand what we have witnessed and to assess what it all means for us as Jews. We want to be aware of the risks and challenges around us and we also want to affirm our identity as Jews - members of an ancient faith and an ancient people whose homeland is the land of Israel.

This podcast features conversations on Israel and Jewish identity, hosted by Rabbi Eyal Bitton.

To confront the challenges, obstacles, risks, and dangers in this changing world we must first assert that we are PROUDLY JEWISH.
