Description

It's been nearly five years since the deadliest antisemitc attack in US history, the Tree of Life shooting in Pittsburgh. As the trial of the shooter is set to begin, we sit down with Jeff Finkelstein, CEO of the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh, and Maggie Feinstein, director of the 10.27 Healing Partnership, to learn how the community has held together in the face of a horrific trauma, ask whether increased security presence is more comforting or unsettling, and delve into how communities can make themselves more resilient.  "The Glue, with Eric Fingerhut," is brought to you by Jewish Federations on North America, the backbone of the North American Jewish community, representing over 350 communities across North America. Find out how you can get involved or donate to your local Federation at www.jewishfederations.org. Executive Produced by Niv Elis .Produced by Mary Rose Madden, maryrosemadden.journoportfolio.com.

The Glue, with Eric Fingerhut, is an exploration of what hold us together in divided times. In this complicated and often difficult era, when we are challenged by polarization, partisanship, rapid technological change, and social transition, strengthening our social bonds are more important than ever. As president and CEO of the Jewish Federations of North America, representing over 400 Jewish communities across the US and Canada, Eric Fingerhut knows a thing or two about what makes communities tick, how powerful community can be, and what compels communities to stick together. Join Eric in each episode for riveting conversations with experts and thought leaders exploring what is holding us together, how communities are evolving, and why their evolution is crucial to some of the biggest social challenges our societies face today.
