Emily and I have talked about two cultural learning goals for Israel.
#1 Learn about the Refugee epidemic in Israel. While I was in Israel this summer I did a walk through of Tel Aviv and learned that there are a lot of difficulties in Israel in regards to refugees. I want to explore this issue in more depth. To do this I will be reading news reports and doing online research.
#2 Children's Cartoons. Watching cartoons as a child gives children a basis for what is acceptable and what is wrong. I will be watching and analyzing children's cartoons in order to learn more about the basic concepts that all Israelis have at heart.
By learning more about these two subjects I hope to learn more about the political nature of Israel through the learning of the refugee situation and the children's cartoons.
