MARIAL CENTER COLLOQUIUM Home For Supper: the Power of an Everyday Meal Wednesday, November 10, 4:00 p.m.-6:00 p.m. Miriam Weinstein is a Boston-based journalist and former documentary filmmaker whose recent best-selling book, “Yiddish: A Nation of Words,” won the National Jewish Book Award, and has been translated into three foreign editions. She is working on a book about the benefits of family supper. She will talk about her upcoming book, “Home For Supper: The Power of an Everyday Meal.” Because supper includes many different components -- nutrition, manners, language acquisition, family dynamics, ethnic and religious traditions -- it gives us a lens for looking at the structure of the American family. Supper is a beacon of stability and an agent of change.
