Jews in the 21st Century
Talk to Southern New Hampshire Jewish Men's Club, 9/14/08
I gave a talk about trends and the future of Jews in our new century. It's Jewish sociology, not Jewish text or thought. It's broken into two parts since the files are large. Part 1 frames the question and looks back 100 and 50 years, and starts to analyze what's different today. Part 2 looks forward more.
Part 1 -- about 27 minutes
