Golda Meir: From Pogrom to Prime Minister
Burien Little Theater, Corner 4th SW and SW 146th, Burien
As a child, Golda Meir dreamed of a homeland in Palestine for her people. Golda's continued commitment to her land and to her people was the paragon of human dedication. Joan Wolfberg, as Golda, takes you from the pogroms of Russia to Milwaukee, to Denver, to Palestine...and finally to “life in a state of our own”...Israel...as Prime Minister. Chautauqua actress Joan Wolfberg stays in character and answers questions posed to her about Golda and her life.
Co-sponsored by Highline Historical Society and Burien Little Theater. Admission: $5. Free with Highline Heritage Museum Membership Card.
Repairing the World
"Tikkun olam" (literally, "world repair") has come to connote social action and the pursuit of social justice. The phrase has origins in classical rabbinic literature and in Lurianic kabbalah, a major strand of Jewish mysticism originating with the work of the 16th-century kabbalist Isaac Luria. The term "mipnei tikkun ha-olam" (perhaps best translated in this context as "in the interest of public policy") is used in the Mishnah (the body of classical rabbinic teachings codified circa 200 C.E.). There, it refers to social policy legislation providing extra protection to those potentially at a disadvantage--governing, for example, just conditions for the writing of divorce decrees and for the freeing of slaves
