Randi travels to Israel regularly to build bridges between the American and Israeli Jewish communities. She will take us on a journey through her most recent Israel trip with the Shalom Hartman Institute where she listened and participated in events surrounding the Israeli court reform controversy and cultural interchange between our communities. The event is an opportunity to hear about the varied social and political dynamics in Israel today and to discuss and ask questions on these topics.
