Jewish Book Festival: As a Jew by Sarah Hurwitz

In this powerful and personal exploration, former White House speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz—author of the critically acclaimed Here All Along—reclaims Jewish identity by confronting centuries of antisemitic myths and cultural erasure. With wit, humility and deep insight, she delves into ancient traditions, spiritual wisdom and the modern search for belonging. In an era of rising antisemitism, Hurwitz offers a timely, defiant call to challenge stereotypes and embrace Jewish heritage without apology—a moving reflection for seekers, skeptics and believers alike.
