Kennedy heir nerds out on book about 'anti-materialism'

Jack Schlossberg, grandson of President John F. Kennedy and heir to the Kennedy family fortune, spent the holidays sharing glimpses of his life on social media, including reading Michael Lerner's book on anti-materialism, 'Tikkun...to Heal, Repair and Transform the World.' Schlossberg, who identifies as culturally Jewish, highlighted the concept of 'tikkun olam,' or repairing the world, as part of his holiday reflections.

Amid lighthearted posts about his family and single status, Schlossberg also promoted his campaign for New York's 12th congressional district, positioning himself as a progressive voice and calling for change within his party. Despite facing a crowded field and some controversy over past social media posts, he continues to leverage his online presence and Kennedy legacy as he seeks to replace retiring representative Jerry Nadler.

Schlossberg's campaign has experienced staff changes but remains focused on local issues and progressive policies, with his team touting his ability to connect with voters through unconventional and sometimes provocative social media content.
