See DetailsIn American Creed, David Kennedy discusses the changing attitudes towards what he calls “hyphenated Americans” (Italian-American, Irish-American, Jewish-American, etc.). In this webinar, facilitators offer practical tools and strategies to encourage students to explore their Jewish identities and consider how those identities coexist with their identities as Americans.
