Chabad Jewish Community Center present: "Encountering the Stranger - Part 1 of 2"

Editors John K. Roth and Leonard Grob, in their book Encountering the Stranger, state that, “Authentic dialogue must aim to overcome existential mistrust of the stranger.” Rather, contributors to their book seek “fundamental change” which may include “revising their own tradition’s assumptions and teaching regarding ‘the other.’ ”
An illustrious gathering of renowned scholars, clergy, artists and theologians, representing the Abrahamic traditions, examine this phenomenon in terms of past, present and future encounters with the “stranger.” In addition to the editors, various presenters include several contributors to their book.
