In Ghosts of a Holy War, award-winning journalist Yardena Schwartz presents a meticulously researched and dynamic history of the 1929 massacre of Jews in Hebron — an event that became ground zero of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
Drawing on century-old letters discovered in a Memphis attic, alongside contemporary interviews with Israelis and Palestinians living in Hebron today, Schwartz reveals how the causes and aftershocks of 1929 have reverberated for the last century — including in the aftermath of October 7, 2023. As Yossi Klein Halevi writes, “If you are going to read one book to help you understand the current Middle East tragedy, this is it.” It was also just announced that Schwartz’s narrative is being adapted into a feature film by Crystal City Entertainment.
Joining her in conversation is Noam Weissman, Executive Vice President of OpenDor Media and host of the Unpacking Israeli History podcast and co-host of the Wondering Jews podcast. Weissman is known for approaching Israeli history with intellectual rigor, educational depth, and a commitment to complexity — challenging both romanticized and reductive narratives. The conversation will be guided by 92NY Senior Director of Jewish Life Rabbi David Ingber. His spiritual insight will be asking not only what happened, but how the stories we inherit shape Jewish identity, communal discourse, and Israel education today.
Together, Schwartz and Weissman and Rabbi Ingber will explore the origins of the conflict, the power of historical memory, and the urgent need to rethink how Israel is taught in Jewish spaces.

“FIVE SESSIONS…A War in Therapy”
A RAW AND EXPLOSIVE NEW YORK THEATRICAL EVENT THAT CHALLENGES THE LIMITS OF THERAPY AND JUSTICE
“FIVE SESSIONS…A War in Therapy”–, a gripping new play by the playwright&nbsp; (JS/MSW) Jaime Estades. Set in present-day New York City, this intense psychological drama confronts audiences with urgent questions about systemic injustice, and the limits of institutional care.
Over the course of five charged therapy sessions, the audience is drawn into a confined space where two individuals collide: a recent graduate therapist with a privilege background–trained with clinical tools and good intentions but non-experiential, and a Latino building superintendent, labor organizer, and a man on the edge, shaped by grief, exploitation, and systemic neglect. “FIVE SESSIONS…A War in Therapy”—it is a theatrical confrontation.

The 4-Step Strategy to Attract an Equal Partner Without the App Fatigue
<a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/dating-is-dead-why-nycs-most-successful-women-like-you-are-still-single-tickets-1988244035432?" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">BUY&nbsp;YOUR&nbsp;TICKETS&nbsp;HERE</a>
The more successful you become, the harder dating gets. You already know this. What you don't know is exactly why — and what to do about it.
You dread opening your DMs. Blind dates feel like a second job interview. You've taken more breaks from dating than you can count. And you're starting to wonder if love is just not in the cards for you.
Here's the truth: there are more than 30 reasons why dating is so hard in New York for a woman like you. Most workshops only cover 3 factors (time, dating apps, and a shrinking pool of men). Not only is this the only workshop covering them all, but it's the only workshop giving you real, practical solutions to overcome them, step-by-step.
Dating Is DEAD: How NYC's Most Successful Women Are (Finally) Finding Love—And You Can Too is a 5-hour live masterclass and workshop for successful single women in NYC who are done being razor-sharp in every area of their lives except their love life. No recycled advice. A full reset — built specifically for modern, high-achieving NYC women who want an equal, emotionally intelligent, values-matched partner.
This is an investment in a strategic approach to your love life, designed to equip you with actionable insights and a supportive community.
WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH
✔ We don't just talk about the 3 reasons you feel powerless in love (app algorithms, time, and a smaller pool of men). We discuss the 8 patterns and 30 + reasons the most successful women struggle in dating—but more importantly, tools you can use to overcome all of these patterns.
✔ Clarity on the patterns keeping you stuck — people-pleasing, over-functioning, tolerating misaligned values, and more — and a real plan to break them
✔ A values-aligned partner profile built around your ambitions and your vision for your life, not a generic checklist
✔ A practical dating strategy you can implement immediately, designed for feminist women who refuse to compromise on what matters
✔ Real connection with a community of like-minded single women in New York who are also done shrinking — and done doing this alone
THIS IS FOR YOU IF:
→ You're a successful, independent woman who wants a real relationship on your terms
→ You're exhausted by dating apps, situationships, and emotionally unavailable men
→ Your values aren't a talking point — they show up in how you live and who you are — and you want a partner who can say the same
→ You want to date intentionally, attract an equal, and stop feeling behind in your love life
YOUR GUIDE
Expert guidance from Sophie Kaemmerle, a dating coach and professional matchmaker who specializes in modern, high-achieving women and has worked with executives, doctors, founders, and other successful women. With Sophie's expertise, clients don't just leave with better dates — they leave with a clearer understanding of themselves, what they actually need, and the confidence to recognize it when it's in front of them.

TESTIMONIALS
"Sophie is a keen listener, highly observant, and incredibly empathetic. She takes the time to intentionally guide you through your core dating philosophies, and has helped me uncover things I had no idea existed in my own perspective."
"Sophie is an exceptional NYC matchmaking coach! Through her professionalism, attentive listening, and wise advice, I moved forward confidently in a relationship, overcoming doubts and laying a solid foundation. Her approach is both human and effective, blending empathy with practical tools. Highly recommend for tailored advice and support."
PITCH-A-FRIEND
Your Next Connection Awaits! At the end of the masterclass, we do something no other dating event does. You'll have the opportunity to champion a high-value single male friend to the group — vouched for, vetted, and introduced by a woman who knows him well. Real connections. No apps. No swiping. Please see the agenda in "More" for details about this segment of the Masterclass.
