Wrestling with Power: Authority, Impeachment & Cancel Culture in the Talmud


Join Rabbi David Edleson and Bruce Hicken for a dynamic 6-week journey into the world of Talmudic debate, exploring how the ancient rabbis grappled with leadership, dissent, and communal boundaries. Whether you're a seasoned Torah scholar or just Talmud-curious, this class will open your eyes to the surprising relevance of rabbinic conversations on impeachment, public accountability, and what we might now call "cancel culture."

Classes meet Thursdays from 12:00–1:30pm on the following dates in 2026: January 11, 18, 25 and February 1, 8, 15.


No prior experience with Talmud or Hebrew needed—just bring your curiosity and a willingness to wrestle!

In Person Only.
