cellioThere is a national lecture series, live telecast from NY (with Q&A opportunities from the remote locations), for which my congregation will be the local provider. The first lecture is tomorrow night: "A Moral Courage Conversation", with Christiane Amanpour (CNN) and Irshad Manji. Text study (Jewish sources, accessible and open to all) at 7:15, lecture at 8:00, Temple Sinai. (Speakers later this year include Rabbi Telushkin, Seinfeld, and Al Gore -- quite a mix.)
From the flyer:
Christiane Amanpour is CNN's chief international correspondent. Her coverage of the Gulf War, genocide and natural disasters around the globe have made her one of the most recognizable international correspondents on American television. She has earned numerous awards including an inaugural Television Academy Honor, Emmys, Peabody Awards, George Polk Awards, an Edward R. Murrow award and other major honorary degrees. Irshad Manji is the Muslim reformer whom The New York Times calls "Osama bin Laden's worst nightmare."
There is an admission fee. I'd like to see the series do well, so if you are local, know me, and want to come, let me know by 5:30PM tomorrow and if you're among the first 4 or 5 people to ask, I'll give you a ticket. (This will be implemented as "your name will be on a list at the door"; we don't have to connect with each other in advance.) Or just show up, buy a ticket, and support my congregation; that works too. :-)
