SUMMARY:CIESJ Book Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Temple Sinai’s Committee for Israel Engagement and Social Justice hosts a virtual discussion of of Red Hook Road by American Jewish Author Ayelet Waldman\, along with our partner congregation\, Congregation Ramot Shalom of Be’er Shevah. \nRegister to join via Zoom \n  \nRED HOOK ROAD \nA rich and rewarding story of love\, loss\, and the power of family from the bestselling author of Bad Mother and Love and Other Impossible Pursuits. In the aftermath of a devastating wedding day\, two families\, the Tetherlys and the Copakens\, find their lives unraveled by unthinkable loss. Over the course of the next four summers in Red Hook\, Maine\, they struggle to bridge differences of class and background to honor the memory of the couple\, Becca and John. As Waldman explores the unique and personal ways in which each character responds to the tragedy—from the budding romance between the two surviving children\, Ruthie and Matt\, to the struggling marriage between Iris\, a high strung professor in New York\, and her husband Daniel—she creates a powerful family portrait and a beautiful reminder of the joys of life. Elegantly written and emotionally gripping\, Red Hook Road affirms Waldman’s place among today’s most talented authors. \n

SUMMARY:YAWS Meeting
DESCRIPTION:We are a group of parents of young adults and teens who are struggling with life. Examples of such difficulties might be: isolation\, social difficulties\, school avoidance\, school failure or other learning differences\, vocational struggles\, inhibitions around launching and independence or strained relations with friends and family. Many struggle with mental illness\, learning disabilities\, Asperger’s\, substance abuse or autism. Some are undiagnosed\, just not living up to society’s expectations. \n\n\nWe meet once a month and support and encourage one another as we look at strategies for helping our young adults. We understand the journey\, which has many twists and turns\, often not what we expected when thinking about raising a child. We laugh\, cry\, share resources\, and support one another. Occasionally\, we have speakers join us and supplement our knowledge of resources available\, including housing options\, legal remedies\, new medications or treatments\, etc. \n\nThe group meets monthly and is open to anyone interested. All information shared is completely confidential. Should you have any questions\, please call the Temple Sinai office at (202) 363-6394.

SUMMARY:Daytimers with Robert Lieber
DESCRIPTION:United States Foreign Policy In Turbulent Times \nGuest Speaker Robert Lieber\, PhD\, Professor Emeritus of Government and International Affairs\, Georgetown University \nAmerica’s relations with allies and adversaries have displayed a dizzying series of changes. Longtime solidarity with European allies that had been a fixture of the US world role since the creation of NATO has been questioned\, and relations with Asian allies are only slightly less troubled. A rearmed Russia and an increasingly powerful China pose strategic threats\, yet the Trump administration’s policies have been ambivalent toward Moscow and seem to alternate between cooperation and conflict with Beijing. Despite a transactional approach to friends and foes\, the reality is that not only are US national security and vital interests at stake\, but also our values. \nRobert Lieber is Emeritus Professor of Government and International Affairs at Georgetown University\, where he previously served as Chair of the Government Department and interim chair of Psychology. He is author or editor of eighteen books on international relations and U.S. foreign policy\, and his essays and op-eds have appeared in journals and newspapers in the U.S.\, Europe\, and Israel. He also has served as an advisor to several presidential campaigns\, to the State Department\, and to the drafters of U.S. National Intelligence Estimates. His most recent book is INDISPENSABLE NATION: AMERICAN FOREIGN POLICY IN A TURBULENT WORLD (Yale University Press). \nJoin the Temple Sinai DayTimers for a Zoom program to learn more about United States foreign policy. There will be adequate time for questions\, comments\, and discussion following the presentation. \nRegister to join via Zoom
