Who Are We Becoming and Why? Our Changing Identities as Jews

Steven Windmueller, Ph.D., Emeritus Professor of Jewish Communal Studies

“Who are we” is no longer merely a theoretical proposition but a defining construct of where and how we find ourselves amidst the “undoing’s” of our lives, says 91 Faculty Emeritus Steven Windmueller, Ph.D. In his latest blog for “The Times of Israel,” Dr. Windmueller explores how we are reminded that Jewish identities are always in transition. Labels can be fluid and contested. Today, as a result of the elements surrounding us and in response to what is happening both beyond and within the Jewish world, we see multiple new and different Jewish identities being formed.
