Take a trip to the Jewish Film Festival as we we kick off our annual commemoration of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Rabbi on the Block tells the story of Tamar Manasseh, the charismatic rabbi and community activist from the south side of Chicago who wants African Americans and Jews to become closer allies. With one foot firmly in each of these two communities, Black Jews like Tamar are the natural bridge to help overcome decades of fear, misunderstanding, and lack of communication.
Event includes Zoom Q&A with Producer/Director Brad Rothschild.
Tickets are available online. USA Students can attend for free, courtesy of Dean Andrzej Wierzbicki and the College of Arts and Sciences, who has generously supported the Film Festival over many years.
The Mobile Jewish Film Festival starts January 7, 2024, and runs through January 21, 2024. For information about the other films being offered, visit the Festival website.
