This week’s show featured the first of three lectures by teacher, author, and Nobel Peace Prize winner, Elie Wiesel, as part of his 2004 lecture series at Boston University titled “The Fascination with Jewish Tales.”

In this lecture, titled “Amos and Habakkuk – Minor Prophets?” Wiesel addressed the lack of information about the two Biblical prophets, discussed their work in social justice, and how their dedication was not affected by the opinions of others.

Wiesel has been delivering his annual three-lecture series “The Fascination with Jewish Tales” at Boston University since 1975.
