• AHEC Holocaust in Film Series: No Place on Earth

    Sidewalk Film Center & Cinema 1821 2nd Avenue North, Birmingham

    The AHEC invites you to join us for the third screening of our 13th annual Holocaust in Film Series: Rescue, Escape, and Liberation, sponsored by the Perlman Donor Advised Fund. On March 17, at Sidewalk Film Center & Cinema, we will screen the powerful and deeply moving documentary “No Place on Earth.” Based on the memoir of Holocaust survivor Esther Stermer, this documentary tells the shocking story of three Jewish families—38 people in total—who escaped the Nazis and survived the Holocaust by hiding in a cave in Ukraine. Following the screening, Michele Forman—a second-generation Survivor, award-winning documentarian, and UAB media studies professor—will lead a discussion about the film to deepen audience understanding of the extreme strength and sacrifices needed to escape the Nazi regime and survive the Holocaust, as well as the role documentaries must play in preserving Holocaust memory.  Tickets are $10 per person. Purchase your tickets today!

    Temple Emanu-El 2100 Highland Ave, Birmingham, AL, United States

    The largest section of the TaNaKh, our most central Jewish text, is Nevi’im, the Prophets. In the numerous books of this section, we encounter the prophets of our tradition. The prophets in this text are passionate and moral people who desperately want to pass the word of God onto the Israelite people. The task of these figures is to be a compelling microphone of God, and help the chosen people find the best way to live according to God’s laws. Each prophet strives to make the world a better place. In the course, we will dive deeply into the Prophets, learning how to apply the text to our modern lives as well as examining the text itself through a lens on the Hebrew and commentary.

    Please join Tammi Calwell-Horn and Dalia Abrams for the newest TBE Village: the Rosh Hodesh Circle, based on materials published by At The Well (link to https://www.atthewellproject.com/). At each evening meeting we will explore the themes of the month through meditation, crafting projects, movement/dance, torah study and food. No experience necessary. Meetings will be monthly, on Rosh Hodesh (so days of the week will vary), at our homes. So, please join us for sisterly bonding through the Jewish wisdom of our ancestresses. All who identify as sisters are welcome.
