WATCH NOW: Virtual Conversation: A Plague of Our Own
This event has already taken place. Watch the video recording here. What do the Ten Plagues from the Book of Exodus have to teach us about the pandemic we are experiencing? And how can the coronavirus crisis deepen our understanding of the Ten Plagues? As we all think about how to do Seders in this new normal, Jodi Rudoren will host a conversation with Deborah Lipstadt, Tema Smith, Benjamin Wittes, Noah Lubin, Molly Jong Fast, Virginia Heffernan and other contributors to the Forward’s special collection of essays on these themes.
This is part of our new series, “#ForwardFocus: Talks in Trying Times,” in which Jodi is moderating weekly talks with Jewish leaders working to build community through this crisis.
