Students today are often experiencing Zionism as a political movement with negative undertones and often miss the positive Jewish core values with which the movement was created.

This series puts politics aside and aims to get back to the roots of Zionism by uncovering the historical events and incredible people that influenced the modern movement. This will provide your students with a more robust understanding of Zionism so they will have a fuller appreciation and deeply nuanced connection to Israel.
