American Jewish journalist Peter Beinart reflects on the world around him – and his place within it – amid the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza offers a timely reflection, seeking to reimagine what it means to be Jewish in the wake of the horrors unfolding in the Middle East.
Drawing on Jewish tradition and history, and global efforts at moral reconstruction, Peter Beinart calls for a new story to take hold – one in which Palestinian and Jewish safety are interconnected, and where the veneration of nation states cannot be at the expense of human life.
He joins host Sarah Schwartz for an examination of one of the most pressing issues of our time and offers his vision for a future of peace and equality.
This event was recorded on Tuesday 27th May 2025 at The Wheeler Centre.
It was presented in partnership with The Jewish Council of Australia.
The official bookseller was Mary Martin Bookshop.
Featured music is 'Different Days' by Chill Cole.
