Rabbi David Wolpe, whom Newsweek called “the most influential rabbi in America,” will visit Vanderbilt, joining Divinity School Dean Yolanda Pierce, an acclaimed scholar, writer and womanist theologian, for a fireside conversation. The discussion will be centered around Vanderbilt’s commitment to free expression, constructive dialogue and mutual respect—even when topics are emotionally charged and when people strongly disagree. Topics are likely to include Wolpe’s view of the conflict between Israel and Hamas, the theological context and history through which to view the conflict, a discussion on how sacred sites influence dialogue and behavior, and strategies for communicating productively in an ideologically charged environment.
