Achshav Yisrael's "Negotiating Jerusalem" will take place on Sunday, March 11, 3 – 5 p.m., in Koret Hall.
Jerusalem is so many things to so many people. With Donald Trump’s recent announcement that the United States recognizes Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, the spotlight was once again on this hot-button city. What does the declaration mean for Israel and Jerusalem’s residents – both in the western and eastern parts of the city?Join Achshav Yisrael for another stimulating presentation by Professor Eran Kaplan. Professor Kaplan will guide us through three different aspects of Jerusalem: the unique, historical place of Jerusalem in Jewish, Christian, and Muslim traditions; the legal status of Jerusalem in the 20th Century (British, then Israeli-Jordanian, and, finally, Israeli rule); and Jerusalem as part of the peace process and the potential significance of Trump’s recent declaration.Professor Kaplan, an Israeli-American, holds the Richard and Rhoda Goldman Chair of Israel Studies at San Francisco State University.Professor Kaplan’s presentation will be followed by facilitated breakout group conversations. A light Israeli appetizer buffet will be included.
