One of our URJ partners, Congregation Kolot Mayim, is thrilled to invite us the opportunity to share an extraordinary event, being offered free on Zoom!

On January 12, 2025 at 2pm (11am PST) acclaimed British author and educator Ben M. Freeman will present a groundbreaking talk on “Building Jewish Pride and Recognizing Jewish Indigeneity” free on Zoom.

Ben M. Freeman will share his insights on Jewish indigeneity, powerfully articulating how the Jewish people are an indigenous nation with deep, unbroken historical roots in their ancestral homeland of Israel.

This webinar is free and a recording will be provided to all registrants. This event marks the culmination of Freeman’s highly acclaimed Jewish Pride trilogy, and introduces his latest book, The Jews: An Indigenous People, set for release in February 2025. This is an opportunity to engage with a leading voice in modern Jewish identity and the fight against antisemitism.
