Rav Aaron Lopiansky: What Tribes do you Contain Inside? [Peoplehood 1/4]
18Forty PodcastAbout this episode
In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we sit down with Rav Aaron Lopiansky, Rosh HaYeshiva of the Yeshiva of Greater Washington, to talk about the challenges facing American Orthodoxy, life-long education, and value education. Rav Lopiansky speaks the language of the particular; much of his insight is situated for those in the Yeshiva-oriented Jewish communities, but his thought is important for all. As he navigates his understanding of the many roles we all occupy, he promotes a loving acceptance of diversity within the community, with the goal of appreciation for the whole Jewish people. -How can one person love a whole nation? -How can the love for a nation be a textured love, an appreciation that runs deeper than ethnocentrism or love of the similar? -Can deep engagement with one’s own cultural experience engender a deeper appreciation for other cultures? -Or do the lines of difference between one’s culture and others demand demarcation? Tune in to hear Rav Lopiansky discuss differentiating education for all ages, the challenges facing the Jewish people in 2020, and his thoughtful commentary on Jewish life today.
