American Universities and the Threat of Foreign Influence in the Post Oct. 7 World
![]() | A conversation between Rabbi Wolpe and journalist and author Roya Hakakian
How did a senior Iranian diplomat who had whitewashed the regime’s horrific crimes become a tenured faculty at a storied American college? How do Iran and some Arab states wield their money and influence over our colleges and universities? What does such influence mean for Jewish life and the future of democracy in America? Has anything really changed since last year’s campus riots? Renowned journalist and author Roya Hakakian will address these questions in an interview by Sinai Temple’s Rabbi David Wolpe. The tireless efforts of the sister of one of the Islamic Republic’s victims will also be recognized. |
