Community Corner
Life on the Edge (NSSC Class)
Moshe Pomerantz, Teacher, Lecturer
In Israel, if you don't live in any of the three major
population centers of Tel Aviv, Jerusalem or Haifa, you are considered to be
living on the periphery. This is akin to the American English terms of 'the
boonies,' 'the sticks' or being a 'country bumpkin.' Explore with Moshe Pomerantz the background
to why and how the outlying areas were settled and the rich cultural and social
movements that can be found in the periphery through lecture, film clips, and
even music. These people and these places are by no means 'the back water.'
