This Sunday morning speaker series continues on April 3rd with visiting scholar Dr. Roberta Kwall. Her talk, titled "Why Cultural Judaism is a Myth," will explore the intersection between Jewish law and Jewish culture, and reveal why and how cultural Judaism is steeped in Jewish law. It also explores the consequences of this reality for the future of the Jewish people. Professor Kwall's new book: "The Myth of the Cultural Jew: Culture and Law in Jewish Tradition" will be available for (discounted!) purchase and signing at this talk. Dr. Kwall is the founding director of the Center for Intellectual Property Law & Information Technology at the DePaul University College of Law.
