Building on his talk at the Jewish Futures Conference, and inspired by the legacy of his teacher Elie Wiesel, author and educator Ariel Burger shares ten unique and counter-cultural suggestions for teaching with spiritual efficacy in troubled times. Topics include how to cultivate empathy, a new sensitivity to the language that we use, and the power of vulnerability.
