Rabbi Kleinbaum and Dr. Dalton In Conversation

During their conversation on Saturday, April 13, Senior Rabbi Sharon Kleinbaum and Dr. Dennis Dalton explored the importance of reaching into the hearts of one’s adversaries through empathy and understanding, rather than resorting to violence or punishment.

 

They also discussed Gandhi’s unique approach to dealing with terrorists—highlighting the need to nurture compassion and nonviolence in the face of crisis—deepening one’s connection to faith, and replicating Gandhi’s example of peace, love, and compassion.
