Gatherings
The Jerusalem salon
A small evening around one question at a time. In person in Jerusalem, and online.
How it works
Each salon takes one question. A few days before, everyone who signed up gets a short reading. We meet, we talk it through, and we listen hardest to the people who see it differently. Afterward I write up what I learned and post it here.
It’s for anyone who wants to think out loud with people on the other side of a question: Jews and Palestinians, believers and skeptics, locals and visitors. We’ll speak English, and Hebrew and Arabic when the room wants them.
The first question
What is Zionism for? It’s the question behind The Z Word, and the one I keep asking myself.
The reading:
When and where
The date goes first to the people who sign up. Seats in the room are limited, and the place is shared with confirmed guests. Online seats are open. Never on Shabbath.

After each salon
The write-ups will collect here. The first one comes after the first evening.
