Chloé Simone Valdary’s Principles of Zionism
|
Chloé Simone Valdary, a mega-Zionist activist and recipient of this year's CAMERA (Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America) David Bar-Illan Award for Outstanding Student Leadership, shares with VOI's Josh Hasten the core principles which guide her pro-Israel advocacy. She insists that Jews should be uncompromising when explaining their ties and rights to the land of Israel.
Then, Reuben Formey (a.k.a. "Prodezra") is a black rapper in Georgia, who discovered his Jewish roots late in life and uses Judaism as the inspiration for his hip-hop beats.
Finally, Miriam Marcus -- senior executive for external affairs and resource development at Akim-Jerusalem --- joins Josh in-studio to discuss this year's "Miles for Smiles" three-day trek in southern Israel to support the organization's mission of providing care and support for the intellectually disabled. Joining her is Deena Lederman, one of this year's trekkers.
