Rabbi Riqi Kosovske of the Reform Synagogue of Greater Northampton talks about why Jewish people are sensitive about burning books, and how her congregation used their High Holydays celebrations to respond to a pastor’s threat to burn a Koran.
Author Judith Shulevitz has written a book about the Sabbath – both the Jewish and the Christian traditions – and its importance even for the non-religious. She’ll be speaking at Smith College Thursday, May 27, at 7:30.
