Rabbi Joseph Potasnik and Reverend A.R. Bernard interview Dr. Georgette Bennett to explore the dual nature of religion as both a source of humanitarian compassion and a tool for extremist indoctrination. Dr. Bennett discusses her book, Half Jew, Full Life, which details the Holocaust-era struggle for identity and the dangers of authoritarianism and hate speech. A significant portion of the conversation focuses on the Multifaith Alliance, highlighting Dr. Bennett's work in building bridges between sworn enemies and providing aid to Syrian war victims.
