SUMMARY:Common Ground: "If I am only for myself\, what am I? If I’m not for myself\, who will be for me?"
DESCRIPTION:Balancing community and self as revealed through Jewish and Christian thought. \nThe common understanding that “What’s mine is mine and what’s yours is yours” makes for cordial co-existence. However\, our faith traditions offer meaningful ways of connecting on a deeper level. Join us for a discussion about how we can “expand the pie” or share resources to raise us all up. \nThis is part of the Common Ground: Interfaith Dialogue series. Rabbi Jay Stein\, Greenburgh Hebrew Center\, and Rev. Gareth Evans\, St. Barnabas Episcopal Church of Irvington\, come together for an enlightening conversation to build bridges across real and perceived differences. Your participation as a “fly on the wall” and/or an engaged conversationalist is welcome. These are on the 2nd Thursday of every month.

SUMMARY:The Pardon Power: Uses and Abuses
DESCRIPTION:Jess Velona explores how presidential pardons\, while often merciful or remedial for judicial errors\, have also been granted amidst some of the greatest political controversies in our history.  Some examples include Andrew Johnson’s mass pardons of ex-Confederates\, Ford’s pardon of Nixon’s Watergate\, Carter’s mass pardons of Vietnam draft evaders\, Clinton’s pardon of fugitive Marc Rich\, Biden’s pardon of his son\, and Trump’s mass pardons of January 6 defendants.  Jess will address what limits exist upon the pardon power\, particularly after the Supreme Court’s recent decision on presidential immunity. \nAbout the Presenter: Jess Velona has taught courses on Russian history\, the Nazi regime\, and other topics at Fordham University’s College at 60 and NYU’s School of Professional Studies\, as well as African American history at CUNY’s College of Staten Island. He has been a Lecturer-in-Law at Columbia Law School since 2006.  Jess graduated from Harvard College and received an MA in history from NYU before completing Columbia Law School\, where he has been a lecturer-in-law since 2006. Jess previously served as a law clerk for then-Judge Ruth Bader Ginsburg. As a one time candidate for public office in Manhattan and former aide to Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan\, Jess loves sharing his passion for politics and history with students and adult audiences across the New York metropolitan area.

These are on the 2nd\, 3rd\, 4th\, and 5th Fridays of each month.

During nearly 30 years at The New York Times\, she was variously a national correspondent\, a medical reporter\, a contributing writer for The New York Times Magazine\, and the creator of the Life’s Work column and the Motherlode blog.

These are on the 2nd\, 3rd\, 4th\, and 5th Fridays of each month.
