À propos de cet audio
In this final episode, Violet moves from the protest to the family living room, confronting her father and her longtime Israel-supporting grandmother with her beliefs and activism. Their candid, heartfelt conversations expose the generational divides in how each of them understands Israel and the Zionist idea: divisions that echo the broader fracture reshaping American Jewish life. Can honest dialogue begin to heal the modern Jewish-American family?
