About

Ruth provides lively interactive talks and workshops on Jewish cultures and diversity, and bridging differences with Jewish values. Her unique approach reveals the "whys" behind the "ways" of cultural dynamics, Jewish culture as a culture, variations in nationalities, ethnicities, religious practice and more, for fascinating learning and positive connections among Jews.

Programs

Cultural Detective: Jewish Culture

As the old joke goes, "Two Jews, three opinions!" There may be more movements and ideas within Judaism than actual Jews in existence! In this interactive workshop, participants learn to be cultural detectives, examining differences that may divide Jews: ethnicity, religious practice, beliefs and more. Then we "solve the mystery" by bridging the differences with shared Jewish values.

Kvetching Cousins: Israelis and Americans

We have so much in common--how come we're always fighting? Israelis and American Jews DO have much in common, but they also have huge differences in communication styles, outlook on life, priorities, appropriate behavior and much more. Participants will develop ways to work together in Jewish schools and organizations, travel and volunteer programs, business--and even in their own families!
