About
Jimmy Carter, who served as president from 1977-1981, had a complicated, and at times, contentious relationship with the Jewish community despite championing Soviet Jewry, helping 50,000 Jews leave Iran, pushing for legislation to create the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum and brokering peace between Israel and Egypt. Join Ambassador Stuart Eizenstat, President Carter’s chief White House domestic policy adviser, and Moment Editor-in-Chief Nadine Epstein for a conversation about President Carter’s legacy and why it’s time to set aside old angers and recognize that the policies he put in place made the world a better and safer place for Jews. Learn why Eizenstat considers Carter a “Renaissance Man,” what happened behind the scenes during the Camp David negotiations, and celebrate the 77-year love affair between the president and his late wife Rosalynn. Eizenstat, author of “President Carter: The White House Years,” sat down with Epstein to discuss Carter’s life and legacy. In honor of President Carter’s 100th birthday.
