Jews and Eretz Israel: Language, Land, Culture & Identity
About
Join guest speakers Deborah Conway AM, Professor Ghil'ad Zuckermann & Dr Ran Porat, as they explore linguistically, historically and genetically, the indigeneity, aboriginality and first nationhood of the Jewish people.* Identity: Antisemitism is a light sleeper (Deborah Conway AM is a singer-songwriter and guitarist and a 2024 Australian of the Year)
* Language: The Fascinating and Multifaceted 3,300-year Evolution of Hebrew (Professor Zuckermann is listed among Australia's top 30 "living legends of research", 2024, The Australian)
* Land: When Halutzim met the Falaheen: Land and culture aspects of the first encounters between Zionists and Arabs in Ottoman Eretz Israel (Dr Porat is an expert on Israel and Middle Eastern Affairs)
Participants will also acquire tools to represent and advocate for Israel & the Jewish community more effectively, supporting a pluralistic and democratic Israeli society by focusing on Israeli culture and innovation rather than politics and wars.
