Limmud Live!

20 July @ 19:00 – 21:00
Limmud Live! is a new, interactive Limmud event being run for the first time in summer 2022. We will be tackling hot topics and key issues which matter to our community and society, informed by the values Limmud holds dear. With the help of our inspiring presenters, we’ll learn together and then have the opportunity to discuss, debate and deliberate – taking us all one step further in our shared understanding.
Our two summer Limmud Live! events will be taking place in-person at a North London venue.
Tickets are £10 per person per evening.
How do we have conversations across dividing lines?
We often hear that social media, polarisation and cancel culture are making it harder to have discussions with people outside our echo chamber. The Jewish community has not been immune to this – with discussions on Israel or antisemitism often generating conflict. At Limmud, we have been striving to facilitate respectful arguments for the sake of heaven for over 40 years. How can we continue to bring people together, even when we disagree? With our panel of presenters, and with your help, we’ll hope to find more questions, and possibly even some answers, to move us forward on this journey.
Join our second Limmud Live! Wednesday 24 August where we will consider How it is possible to build a community which respects everyone.
The last few decades have seen significant shifts in our understanding of who is truly welcomed in society and community, and who has been left on the sidelines. Limmud values diversity, but as with all parts of our society we know that ensuring all people are welcome and respected takes hard work. Together with our panel of presenters, and then with your input, we will together think about what is needed to ensure we are able to practice what we preach.
