עמוד:43
French Jews sometimes feel hostility directed at them and even fear for their safety . Find two examples of this in the newspaper . Explain your choices . How are the relations between Jews and non-Jews in your community ? How do they compare with the community described in the newspaper ? 8 Assimilation Some Jews don’t belong to any Jewish community . Some don’t participate in community activities or meet with other Jews at all . Some only have non-Jewish friends . Jews who distance themselves from the Jewish community or from the Jewish community’s way of life are called “ assimilated Jews” . Read the article “ Is the Future of the Jewish People in Danger ?” In what ways is the Jewish community in France trying to cope with assimilation ? Find an example of this in the newspaper . 9 Jewish tourism Like everyone else , Jews go to the beach , travel and visit tourist sites when they go on vacation . Sometimes during their travels , they also meet with Jews from the local community . Read the itinerary of the trip to Russia and Ukraine . Find two sites that non-Jews would be unlikely to visit . Why do you think that the organizers of the trip included these sites in the trip ? Have you also visited places connected to Jewish life when you were on a trip ? If so , give two examples of these places and explain why you ( or your parents ) went there . Look up a city or country on the internet and plan an itinerary for a day visiting the sites of Jewish interest .
