The Friends of Sia'h Shalom seeks to strengthen ties between Jerusalem-based Sia’h Shalom and the North American Jewish community. Sia’h Shalom Circles in North American cities bring together diverse and highly divided groups of Jews, both lay leaders and rabbis, creating spaces for listening and spiritual growth in the increasingly polarized North. American Jewish landscape.
As co-director of the Friends of Sia'h Shalom Rabbi Tara Feldman speaks from the heart and head about the vital importance of “conversing across polarities” in Israel. Though recorded prior to the current Israel/Hamas war, her message and that of Sia'h Shalom are always relevant and timely messages. Tara and her husband and co-director Meir believe that speaking and listening in peace is the root, the soil and sun, the water the light and air, that has the power to help solve even our most intractable challenges.
Highlights:
· Sia’h Shalom fosters dialogue and healing through listening, encouraging dialogue and unity.
· Diverse views within Jewish communities need understanding.
· Dialogues empower leaders, raise issues, and build unity despite painful interactions and brokenness.
· Tara would feel despair over inability to bridge political divides without the conversation circles “conversing across polarities”.
· The program explores modalities, similarities, and cross-border dialogue.
