Amplifying RSJ voices at the Political Table

It's no secret that RSJs have a complicated relationship with politics. The corruption of the former Soviet Union in this respect, mixed with a focus on other areas (like education and wealth-building) after immigration, are but two factors, of many, that have impacted this reality. Many of us, however, are avid spectators of politics. What if we could channel this energy into targeted activism that yields actual results for Israel and for the U.S.? With the existence of AIPAC, an organization that focuses on the U.S.-Israel relationship and teaches everyday citizens to get involved in the political process, we can. Come hear all about it from Stella Binkevich, a long-time AIPAC activist and a fellow RSJ.
