Canceling is not just a modern cultural phenomenon. In fact, the Jews basically invented cancel culture. Remember when God canceled humanity with the flood? But like all great gifts the Jewish people have given the world, canceling is not as simple as we make it. There are nuances and sacred obligations to what we call "cancel culture." Join us for this session...otherwise you will definitely be canceled...oh, never mind.
