I had bunches of insights to share about Jewish notions of afterlife and how tikkun olam is important to olam habah. I just shared them with my class, though, so I'm all over them. The other thing I shared with my class was Al Jolson singing Kol Nidre. If I could go back in time I would go to a Kol Nidre service with Jolson as cantor, just to see if he kept his jazz mannerisms when he was not in front of a camera and if he was singing the holiest thing in the year.
