Free online event from the Forward tomorrow! RSVP below!

Since the book was released we’ve had a series of incredibly successful, packed events where we talked about how to build the fight against antisemitism. We’ve been joined by local organizers, scholars, and communal leaders, and partnered with wonderful synagogues and organizations who are deeply invested in building a future of Jewish safety and justice. Now we are taking these events to the east coast!

At the beginning of September we have five events coming up where you can come join the conversation in person! Check this list below and where there is an RSVP link that means you should probably sign up since we have exceeded capacity at every event we have had. All of them are entirely free!

  • 9/5 Baltimore: We will be joined by Rabbi Ariana Katz at Red Emma’s Bookstore at 7pm on September 5th as we talk about antisemitism, anti-Zionism and (re)building Jewish life. The event is cosponsored by Congregation Hinenu, Jewish Voice for Peace, and IfNotNow. RSVP for the event here.
  • 9/7 Philadelphia: We will be in conversation at Making Worlds books at 6pm on Saturday, September 7th at an event co-sponsored by Jewish Voice for Peace, IfNotNow, and Congregation Kol Tzedek. RSVP for free tickets here.
  • 9/7 Philadelphia: We will also be offering Dvar Torah during morning Torah service that same day at Kol Tzedek.
  • 9/8 Washington D.C.: In partnership with the New Synagogue Project, JVP DC Metro, and IfNotNow we will be speaking at Busboys and Poets alongside Rebecca Ennen. Click here to RSVP.

  • 9/10 New York City: Our last date will be in New York City at an event hosted by Jews for Racial and Economic Justice (JFREJ), IfNotNow, Waging Nonviolence and as part of the Beyond the Pale podcast live! The event will be held at Bluestockings in Manhattan, and you can RSVP here.

We also want to invite you to our next digital event, hosted by The Forward where we will discuss how the left can fight antisemitism. It’s totally free, but you need to RSVP and it is tomorrow 7pm EST/ 4pm PST!
