"I have never believed in
inflexibility—except when Israel is concerned. On matters that have to do
with my country, I have never conceded an inch—but people are something
else"
(Meir, 1975, p. 183).

Golda Meir always acted on her strong feelings to do the right thing—no matter what the price. Meet “Goldie Meyerson” in her early years, 1914-1948. Witness her strong will and call to action from rebellious teenager, to newlywed and kibbutz pioneer, to mother and wife, to dedicated contributor to the creation of the State of Israel.
Two versions of this one-woman drama are available:
- One-hour “living history”: Appropriate for both young adults and adults, this 40-minute monologue will be followed with a 10-minute Q&A as Mrs. Meyerson, finishing with a 10-minute Q&A with the scholar/presenter.
- Two-hour, full length adult program: This performance expands on Golda Meir’s pivotal moments that shaped not only an individual’s life, but the destiny of a nation.
Golda Meir’s hope and vision for the Jewish people—to exist as a sovereign state and to live in peace with their Arab neighbors—is as vital today as it was in 1948.
