Talking in Shul


Anti Semitism & Perfect Summer Shabbats

This month we’re talking with Dr. Hannah Lebovits, assistant professor of Public Affairs at the University of Texas- Arlington, to talk about the different kinds of anti-semitism and discrimination.

And for our second segment we’re talking about our perfect summer Shabbat.
We explore our favorite activities and discuss what makes these hot Shabbatot bearable and/or fun. We also chat about what’s our favorite way to approach Shabbat dinner when Shabbat doesn’t officially start until after 8pm.

Zahava’s summer Shabbat recipe: Mango Gazpacho

Mimi recommends the gazpachos from Kitchen Matrix by Mark Bittman
Tamar suggested Nicoise salad with salmon (very adaptable, this recipe looks good)
