The Z3 Conference is where Jews from across the political and\nreligious spectrum come together to have real conversations about Israel\,\nZionism\, power\, identity\, and the future of Jewish life. Z3 @ Cincinnati is\nour local version. Built by the Mayerson JCC and the Jewish Federation of\nCincinnati\, this event reflects the voices\, questions\, and realities of Jewish\nlife in Cincinnati.

For decades\, Israel served as a unifying symbol across the global\nJewish community—but in recent years\, and especially following the events of\nOctober 7\, 2023\, it has become a source of pain\, tension\, and deep\ndisagreement. \nThis course aims to foster a renewed sense of shared peoplehood by exploring\nthe values that shape diverse Jewish perspectives on Israel and the\nIsraeli–Palestinian conflict. Together\, we will engage with themes such as\njustice\, security\, dignity\, peoplehood\, and peace. Rather than advocating a\nsingle political stance\, we will cultivate space for respectful dialogue\,\nstrengthening our ability to learn from one another\, stay connected across\ndifferences\, and hold complexity with honesty and care. \n**Registration requested.

We’ll look at how rabbis\,\ncongregations\, and kosher wineries navigated a time of legal tension and moral\ndebate\, and what it reveals about Jewish resilience\, religious freedom\, and\nthe American Jewish experience. \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/14872 URL:https://cincyjewfolk.com/event/tuesdays-with-torah-jews-and-booze-making-kiddush-during-prohibition-3/ LOCATION:Wise Center 8329 Ridge Road\, Cincinnati CATEGORIES:Adults,Jewish Learning ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cincyjewfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/02/TWT_Jews_and_Booze6-NRi7XF.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Wise Learning":MAILTO:clawler@wisetemple.org END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
