In this session we will consider our own identities by exploring what we are taught about ourselves and our communities, what relationships our white Jewish communities have with Black communities, and what white people in this country are taught about the history of racism. We will then work to identify how racism operates in our society, from employment and education to the criminal justice system to the media. What are examples of racism we see in our own lives? What racism is more ‘close to home’ and what is systemic? We will end our session with ideas for action.
