Harvard-area events
Am I making you lust for Israel? Lust no further, Harvard friends. Here are two events to get your kippa on:
HUDS, the Food Literacy Project, Hillel and the Harvard Bookstore present History, Traditions, Flavors: The Foods of Israeli and American Passover Celebrations. It’ll take place this Thursday, April 2 at 7:00 PM at Harvard Bookstore. Come listen to the award-winning food writer James Beard and cookbook author Joan Nathan discuss flat bread, Moses, and the importance of getting drunk silly with your Abba this Passover season.
On a less cheery note, the MIT-Harvard Gaza Symposium is today, March 30 through Tuesday, March 31. Here are the details:
Time: 1:30-6:00pm on both days
Monday: Wong Auditorium (MIT Bldg E51, 70 Memorial Drive, Cambridge)
Tuesday: Austin Hall, Harvard Law School, 1515 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge)
The second annual Gaza symposium, this year jointly organized by MIT and Harvard, will host a series of panels on the role of US and international actors, as well as human rights and international humanitarian law in the wake of recent events in Gaza. Bringing together experts in the fields of human rights, history, political science, US foreign policy and law, the two-day symposium will include a range of views from US, Israeli, Palestinian and UN/NGO perspectives.
