Mid-Atlantic Premiere
Tamar Manasseh, a charismatic rabbi and community activist from the south side of Chicago, wants African Americans and Jews to become closer allies. With one foot firmly in each of these communities, Black Jews like Tamar are a natural bridge to help overcome decades of fear, misunderstanding, and lack of communication. With antisemitism and racism on the rise, Rabbi on the Block shows how Manasseh is bringing together Jews of all colors and building bridges that will serve as the foundation for a revitalized alliance of African Americans and Jews while creating a new style of activist Judaism that takes the religion out of the synagogue and into the streets.
