    From ״Eradicating Ignorance״ to ״Tehila״: Summary Statement

    Adult Education in Israel N. 15, 2017 The 'Eradicating Ignorance Campaign': Evaluation and Summary from a Fifty-Year Perspective to ״Eradicating Ignorance״ From Summary Statement :״Tehila״ Rachel Tokatli1 Introduction I came to the Adult Education Department in Jerusalem in 1977. I had met Avraham Tsivion previously at an inter-university meeting on a matter relating to students in Israel.Tsivion was then the acting Dean for Student Affairs at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, while I represented the faculty of Tel Aviv University, and was joined by the students’ organization representative. A short time later Tsivion suggested that I leave the university, where I had a good chance of an academic career, and pursue a career at the Israel Ministry of Education. My immediate reaction was negative. He persuaded me to come with him to a conference on adult students held in HaMalachim Forest, which I agreed to. What I saw and heard there shocked me, and I then decided to join the Ministry of Education and work with adults who lacked education. I had no experience or knowledge in this field. Maybe that was an advantage, because I was not necessarily bound to what had taken place in the past. When the new adult literacy system was established, I suggested changing the name from "Eradicating Ignorance" to "Tehila" (an acronym meaning "Special Education Program for Adult Students"). Eventually I took upon myself the management of Tehila at the national level. Everything I know, I learned while working with members of the education and teaching system – and more than anyone, from the students themselves.

Family Participation Is The Essential Ingredient In All Passover Recipes There was always a sense of warmth and support when we sat in the kitchen, whether we were watching Mom (in those days it was generally a Mom thing) prepare some new or familiar dish, or when we were invited to actually participate in the cooking or baking. Not only did we have a chance to be drawn in to the actual task, but we had an extended and supportive opportunity to talk about whatever was on either her mind or on ours. Somehow it was the most encouraging environment for what today we call “communication.” The informality linked with the tastes and smells and the sight of the cooking and baking seemed just right. Today, one of the phenomena of the modern modern American family is that fathers are cooking and baking more than ever before; some claim that it is quickly becoming the number one avocation of men between the ages of 25 and 45.

Kirkpatrick he failure of the Carter administration’s foreign policy is now clear to everyone except its architects, and T even they must entertain private doubts, from time to time, about a policy whose crowning achievement has been to lay the groundwork for a transfer of the Panama Canal from the United States to a swaggering Latin dictator of Castroite bent. In the thirty-odd months since the inauguration of Jimmy Carter as President there has occurred a dramatic Soviet military buildup, matched by the stagnation of American armed forces, and a dramatic extension of Soviet influence in the Horn of Africa, Afghanistan, Southern Africa, and the Caribbean, matched by a declining American position in all these areas. The U.S. has never tried so hard and failed so utterly to make and keep friends in the Third World. As if this were not bad enough, in the current year the United States has suffered two other major blows–in Iran and Nicaragua–of large and strategic significance. In each country, the Carter administration not only failed to prevent the undesired outcome, it actively collaborated in the replacement of moderate autocrats friendly to https://www.commentary.org/articles/jeane-kirkpatrick/dictatorships-double-standards/ 1/38 8/10/2021 Dictatorships & Double Standards - Jeane J.

A Master’s Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Hornstein Jewish Professional Leadership Program Professors Ellen Smith and Jonathan Krasner Ph.D., Advisors In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts by Leah Robbins May 2020 Copyright by Leah Robbins 2020 Acknowledgements This thesis was made possible by the generous and thoughtful guidance of my two advisors, Professors Ellen Smith and Jonathan Krasner. Their content expertise, ongoing encouragement, and loving pushback were invaluable to the work. This research topic is complex for the Jewish community and often wrought with pain. My advisors never once questioned my intentions, my integrity as a researcher, or my clear and undeniable commitment to the Jewish people of the past, present, and future. I do not take for granted this gift of trust, which bolstered the work I’m so proud to share. I am also grateful to the entire Hornstein community for making room for me to show up in my fullness, and for saying “yes” to authentically wrestle with my ideas along the way. It’s been a great privilege to stretch and grow alongside you, and I look forward to continuing to shape one another in the years to come. iii ABSTRACT The “Black-Jewish Coalition” Unraveled: Where Does Israel Fit?
