Recounting The Rebbe's Wisdom

The Jewish Community Foundation hosted Rabbi Joseph Telushkin (center) for a discussion of his recent book Rebbe, about the legacy of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson and for a discussion of The Foundation’s role in the community. The November event was held at the Peltz Theater at the Museum of Tolerance. Over 200 attendees listened to Rabbi Telushkin recount the wisdom of the Rebbe through anecdotes and stories, which are told in detail in his book. The talk also highlighted the Rebbe’s leadership of the worldwide Chabad-Lubavitch movement, which now includes Chabad houses in 49 of the 50 American states and in over 80 countries.
