The community of Jews is multi-ethnic and diverse. And while we are all aware of the bias expressed by non-Jews towards us, we seem to overlook the growing problem of bias of Jews against our fellows. As the New Year gets underway, we invite you to join us as we embark on the first of the OJC’s dynamic series of ADL Signature Synagogue events. WHO ARE WE? examines the complex nature of Jewish Identity; the way it informs both how we see ourselves and how we are seen by others.
|
|
Led by the ADL’s Hannah Sattler, an experienced researcher with expertise in contemporary antisemitism, this comprehensive program will address the issues of identity, the ways in which bias shows up, it’s impact, and how we can begin to not only recognize it, but define a clear path for change.
Hannah has worked at the Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum in Poland and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC. She previously served as ADL's Associate Director of Programs and now facilitates antisemitism and anti-bias training. This program is open to all OJC members, as well as friends and family.
