If you live in Seattle and are interested in hearing about A Time to Speak Out, the book to which I’ve contributed an essay, I’d like to invite you to any of three local appearances I’m making to support the book:

University Bookstore
University Avenue
Monday, October 13th 7PM

Elliot Bay Books
Pioneer Square
Sunday, October 26th 2PM (with Bernard Avishai, author of The Hebrew Republic)

Third Place Books
6504 20th Ave. NE
Wednesday, November 19th 7PM

My essay is The Jewish Blogging Wars, and recounts my perspective on the right-left split in the Jewish community as expressed via the online-blog world. I also discuss the democratization of Jewish life that the web has enabled in which the Jewish leadership and mainstream organizations exercise less of a stranglehold over Jewish opinion around the conflict.
