HOW HELEN THOMAS MADE ME A BETTER JEW

HOW HELEN THOMAS MADE ME A BETTER JEW!

 In 2010, David Nesenoff was at the
White House for a reception honoring Jewish American Heritage Month when he
conducted a brief video interview of Thomas in which she said Jews should “get
the hell out of Palestine . . . and go home . . . to Poland and Germany.” The
video went viral after he posted it on his Web site, and Thomas was forced to
resign ten days later. He received global media coverage and
25,000 hate mails and death threats.



Audiences are mesmerized, while they
laugh hard and cry as David weaves
an incredibly funny, yet poignant true tale... one that continues to this very
day. Rabbi Dr. Nesenoff is a
speaker/entertainer with a message and a mission, and he offers clear words and
practical advice, all within great humor.
