Political Update with Keshet Founder, Israel Educator, and Political Analyst, Yitzhak Sokoloff

Yitzhak gave us an overview on current events and political trends in Israel and the surrounding region, followed by a free-ranging Q&A.

We are sorry to report that only the second half of Yitzhak Sokoloff’s presentation was recorded. However, we are still posting it, and hope you find it worthwhile.

Yitzhak Sokoloff is the Founder and President of Keshet Educational Journeys and a pioneer in the field of educational tourism in Israel. He is an Israeli political analyst, educator and tour guide.

Yitzhak studied history and international relations at Columbia University and the Hebrew University in Jerusalem and taught Political Science and Jewish Philosophy at the Hebrew University. He writes and lectures widely on strategic and cultural issues in the Israel-Arab conflict and contemporary Zionism. He also develops seminars for Israelis who have emerged from difficult combat conditions and is an activist in the Ethiopian immigration movement.

Commitment to Sustainability

We care deeply for our corner of holy ground — 35 acres that includes welcoming trails through woods, across fields, and past wetlands and ponds.

We share the Jewish approach to living in balance and harmony with the earth. We do it through teaching and we do it through practice. 

Our goal is to be an organization that fulfills the Torah teaching to be Shomrei Adamah: Guardians of the Earth. Our actions have been recognized by Hazon, the largest Jewish environmental organization in the United States.
