Challenging Antisemitism from a Framework of Collective Liberation
Online
RSVPPlease join PARCEO and Haymarket Books on Wednesday, September 27th at 7 PM for the launch of our “Curriculum on Antisemitism from a Framework of Collective Liberation” grounded in a deep commitment to challenging antisemitism and all forms of injustice.
This new curriculum was created by PARCEO, together with educators, scholars, and activists. The need for educational resources on antisemitism within a pedagogic framework of collective liberation is particularly important for this moment–as rising white nationalist violence targets many of our communities, including Jews, Muslims, Black people, immigrant communities, trans and queer people, among others, and as false charges of antisemitism are directed at seekers of Palestinian justice.
Join PARCEO and Haymarket Books for a discussion on a new curriculum on the importance of combatting antisemitism as part of our broader struggles for justice.
Welcome by Nina Mehta
Opening/Moderated by Robin DG Kelley
Remarks from Jamil Dakwar, Nyle Fort, Abby Saul, Lesley Williams
