The Begin Center and the Z3 Project present an event on The Case for Dual Loyalty with Nolan Lebovitz in conversation with David Hazony

“Rabbi Lebovitz responds to rising antisemitism the way our ancestors did: by reaffirming Jewish loyalty” - Yossi Klein Halevi

Nolan Lebovitz, Senior Rabbi at Valley Beth Shalom in Los Angeles and Z3 Adjunct Fellow, responded to October 7 with a call for American Jews to radically change the way they engage with both Israel and the United States. Challenging the trope of 'dual loyalty' commonly cast against Jews in the Diaspora, his book argues that Jews in America and elsewhere should choose to define themselves as no less loyal to their people than to their host nations.

It's a bold proposal, and it stems from a profound commitment to both the Jewish people and the Jewish state, as well as Rabbi Lebovitz's love of America.

The Begin Center, in collaboration with the Z3 Project, is delighted to host the Israeli launch of this courageous new book, with the author in conversation with David Hazony, Director and Steinhardt Senior Fellow at the Z3 Institute. 

This event can also be streamed on Zoom. Please note the event will occur in Jerusalem time.
