Men’s Club Book Club: Reaching Across the Divide

September 10, 2020 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Event Category:

Join your Sinai Temple friends for our new, virtual book club! We will focus on the theme “Reaching across the divide,” i.e., addressing divisions within our society along political, gender, religious, sectarian, cultural, and other dimensions. This broad topic covers many critical social fractures and highlights the importance of bringing about cohesion and healing in society. After all, cohesion and healing are what community is all about and something that we cherish at Sinai Temple! To allow meaningful participation by everyone, we will limit book club to 30 people. Open to Sinai Temple and Men’s Club members.

This month’s book is Union: A Democrat, a Republican, and a Search for Common Ground by, Jordan Blashek & Christopher Haugh, who will join us for this discussion. Two friends, a Republican Marine and a Democrat son of a single mother from Berkeley, embark on a road trip in search of reasons to strengthen their bond in an era of strife and partisanship. What follows is a three-year adventure story, across forty-four states and along 20,000 miles of road to find out exactly where the American experiment is today. In their search they witness the full scope of American life.
