SUMMARY:Community Mitzvah Day
DESCRIPTION:Join BZBI and the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia as we clean up the play yard at Greenfield\, a public elementary and middle school. Spend the morning in the heart of the city as we give back to our community by taking care of our public spaces. Come help maintain and beautify the yard\, ensuring that it is clean and welcoming for kids to play. \nThe play yard is open to the Philadelphia community. The yard was created as part of the city’s green storm water infrastructure investments and is home to native plants and a small fruit orchard.

SUMMARY:Oren Kessler: Palestine 1936
DESCRIPTION:    Join BZBI and JCRC to learn from author Oren Kessler. He will be visiting our Shul to discuss his new book\, “Palestine 1936” with the community. Books will be available for purchase at the event along with the oppurtunity for them to be signed by Kessler. To register for this free event\, click here.  \nOren Kessler is a journalist and author\, formerly deputy research director at Foundation for Defense of Democracies in Washington and currently based in Tel Aviv. \nHis first book is Palestine 1936: The Great Revolt and the Roots of the Middle East Conflict. It tells the epic story – for the first time in English – of the 1936-1939 Arab Revolt in Mandate Palestine\, the forgotten first “Intifada” that was a seminal event in the birth of Israel and the Middle East conflict\, with lasting echoes until today. The book has been enthusiastically received\, including very positive reviews in the Wall Street Journal and Haaretz\, and reaching #1 on Amazon for new releases in Middle East History.
