Immigrants have provided a source of vitality & ingenuity to this country since its founding. Steve Roberts, author of From Every End of This Earth, will tell that story. He brings it to life through his family history, his book & stories he’s written for Bethesda Magazine. Part of the American legacy is xenophobia & nativism, an impulse that comes out in our history & continues today. Steve will talk about the responsibility of Jews to welcome strangers because of the Exodus & Moses's exile.
