“Letting Go of Fear, Anger & Resentment”
Forgiving someone who has hurt us deeply is among the hardest things in the world to do. Have you ever felt cheated, berated, betrayed, abandoned or abused by friends, relatives or co-workers?
Karen Kaplan, author of Descendants of Rajgród: Learning to Forgive and international speaker, shares her story and her struggle to do the most challenging things she's ever done: forgive her father and let go of the legacy of bitterness and fear that has hovered over the Jewish community following centuries of anti-Semitism. In the process she will give us tools for learning to forgive.
Karen has been featured on WGN-TV Chicago morning news, Bialystok, Poland TV news, WIND Radio, Mental Health News Radio, KCME Radio and cable shows. Her articles have appeared on the covers of the Yiddish Forward, Chicago Jewish News and Sun Times Skokie Review. Additional articles were published in the Sun-Times Deerfield Review, Highland Park Landmark, The Chicago and suburban Patch: on-line news, and The JUF Chicago News. Karen continues to speak at local, national and international organizations, synagogues, churches, museums, and educational institutions. Karen will be speaking in Germany August 2016 at a physician’s conference titled: Refugees, Trauma and Reconciliation.
