Professor Marc H. Ellis, widely recognized as one of the most influential Jewish thinkers of his generation, spoke in Toronto on 14 November 2009 as part of a cross-Canada tour to launch his new book Judaism Does Not Equal Israel which notes the danger to Judaism in identifying with a nation-state.
What does it mean, Ellis asks, to be a Jew after the Holocaust, after Israel, and after what Israel has done and is doing to the Palestinian people? He believes that this question is one of fidelity to Judaism itself.
Ellis's observations lead to conclusions that challenge all of our roles in perpetuating the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, including our understanding of anti-Semitism, of Jewish-Christian dialogue, and our acceptance of a state which privileges one religion or ethnicity over others.
A leading authority on contemporary Judaism, Marc H. Ellis is University Professor of American and Jewish Studies and the founding director of the Center for Jewish Studies at Baylor University; he is the author of fifteen books and has written articles published in the International Herald Tribune, Christian Century, and Haaretz. Ellis regularly provides commentary and analysis on NPR and the BBC and has been inducted into the Martin Luther King Jr. Collegium of Scholars at Morehouse College. He lives in Waco, Texas.

Yves Engler-Canada vs Latin American Democracy
From Jacobins to Salvador Allende, Hugo Chavez and Jean Bertrand Aristide. The book launch presentation took place on Thursday, May 7 in Toronto Canada. "The Black Book of Canadian Foreign Policy" is a critical overview of Canada's role on the world stage. While most Canadians believe their country's primary role has been as peacekeeper or honest broker in difficult-to-solve disputes, the book cites hundreds of examples of colonialism, racism, naked self-interest and willing participation as a policeman for the British and then American empires. Noam chomsky and Naomi Klein have endorsed the book.
