In the second successful part of our Coffee with Professors Lecture Series, UVA religious studies professor and Jewish studies director Asher Biemann gave a lecture called "The Beginnings of Zionism: Basic Ideas and Early Debates."
Students munched on free lemonade and cookies while they listened to the beloved Professor Biemann explain the origins of Zionism and its subsequent criticisms. Students heard Zionism's path from a method of re-unification of the Jews to an alleged form of racism.
