As the Jewish world processes the October 7 massacre and the ensuing worldwide wave of antisemitism, we seek to understand what we have witnessed and to assess what it all means for us as Jews. We want to be aware of the risks and challenges around us and we also want to affirm our identity as Jews - members of an ancient faith and an ancient people whose homeland is the land of Israel.
This podcast features conversations on Israel and Jewish identity, hosted by Cantor Eyal Bitton of Congregation Neveh Shalom of Portland, Oregon.
To confront the challenges, obstacles, risks, and dangers in this changing world we must first assert that we are PROUDLY JEWISH.

Empowering Zionist Rabbis & Their Communities - with Rabbi Stuart Weinblatt
In this episode of Proudly Jewish: Conversations on Israel and Jewish Identity, Cantor Eyal Bitton welcomes Rabbi Stuart Weinblatt, the founding rabbi of Congregation B'nai Tzedek and the visionary leader behind the Zionist Rabbinic Coalition. Together, they explore the essential role of Zionist rabbis in shaping Jewish identity, supporting Israel, and uniting Jewish communities across the globe.
Rabbi Weinblatt shares the motivations behind the creation of the Zionist Rabbinic Coalition, discussing how this non-partisan network of over a thousand rabbis provides crucial support, resources, and a sense of solidarity for rabbis who champion the Zionist cause. The conversation delves into the challenges faced by Zionist leaders, the significance of Jewish unity, and the broader implications of current political dynamics for American Jewry and Israel.
Throughout the episode, Cantor Bitton and Rabbi Weinblatt tackle pressing issues, including the growing divide within the Jewish community, the rise of antisemitism, and the need for a strong, steadfast voice in support of Israel. Rabbi Weinblatt also reflects on the future of Zionism in America and the critical importance of maintaining a robust connection to Jewish heritage and values.
