Join Arlene Goldbard and Rabbi Waskow as they discuss Goldbard’s new book of words and paintings, “In the Camp of Angels of Freedom: What Does It Mean to Be Educated?”
Arlene is an artist and pamphleteer toward a far more democratic American culture, who for ten years was also President of the Board of The Shalom Center. Why explore the depths of this book? When Rabbi Waskow looked at Arlene’s paintings of her “Angels of Freedom” — the people who have taught her how Love and Justice can kiss each other (Psalm 85) — he could see them looking back at him from somewhere beyond the paper of the book. Uncanny! The “myst” of “mysterious” and “mystic.” Arlene chose two of her Angels — Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel and anarchist-pacifist essayist/poet/novelist Paul Goodman — to explore with The Shalom Center ‘s community of friends.
