ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Moshe Kaplan took a circuitous route to the Land of Israel: an acclaimed physician and medical author specializing in complementary medicine in San Francisco, CA, he eventually found his way back to both Judaism and the Jewish Homeland.

In the years since, he has championed unity among Jews, and written several books aimed at this goal. Now, he runs the Be A Mentsch project, a series of initiatives promoting intra-Jewish dialogue and the performance of kind deeds without regard for differences in observance or politics.
