One Day University presents a series of video lectures recorded in real-time from some of the top minds in the United States. Given by award-winning professors and experts in their field, these recorded lectures dive deep into the worlds of religion, government, literature, and social justice.If you’re an American Jew, you don’t know what to think. One day, you read that we are disappearing due to intermarriage and low birth rate; the next day, you read that young Jews are fomenting a renaissance of religious life. One day, you read that anti-Semitic attacks are up; the next day, you read that Jews are, according to surveys, one of American’s most admired ethnic groups. And then there’s Trump: good for the Jews or bad? In this talk, a former New York Times religion columnist, who now hosts the #1 Jewish podcast, sorts out fact from fiction and offers some surprising conclusions.
