OCT: The Jewish/Israel Conflation
So, you are Jewish, what do you think about Israel/Palestine?
For many Jews in the Netherlands, being Jewish is reduced to Israel/Palestine or the Holocaust. During our next discussion together for the Jewish Manifesto, we will discuss what this means for us. And how we see ourselves as connected — or not — to Israel.

NOV: Your Questions
For more than a year we have been talking to Jews throughout the Netherlands about their experiences. In this final conversation of the Jewish Manifesto, we want to take some of the questions raised by previous participants and delve deeper into them. We will conclude the conversation with a celebratory toast: l’chaim, to life.

Am I Jewish Enough to Take Part?
What is the Jewish Manifesto?
The Jewish Manifesto is a declaration of our fears, dreams, desires, and demands for Jewish culture in the Netherlands. And we’re creating it with you, using the most Jewish way we know: through discussion and analysis – chevrutah style.
If you don’t know what chevrutah means, don’t worry. Neither did many of us until recently. Chevrutah means fellowship – as in fellowship of the ring, only Jewish. It’s about learning together and is exciting and fun. As a bonus, the process becomes more meaningful the longer you study together.
