Dear Friends,

As we look ahead to Labor Day Weekend and begin to prepare for the High Holy Days, we have some exciting programming for you this week.
First, we launch a series of programs commemorating the Durban Conference of 2001 that will air throughout the month entitled Durban Revisited.
Durban Revisited takes a hard look at the UN conference that became a seminal event in the organized Jewish community because of the pronounced antisemitic and anti-Israel sentiment expressed there. It also looks at antisemitism and racism today. 
 
Durban Revisited is produced in partnership with B’nai B’rith International, which has long helped lead Jewish communal engagement at the U.N. and brought the largest Jewish delegations to Durban and its follow-up meetings.
