Events for week of November 10, 2024 › Event

On Sunday November 12 at 2:00 pm, Congregation Brit Shalom will be holding a memorial service/panel discussion to commemorate the 85th year since Kristallnacht and the 5th year since the Tree of Life tragedy.  The panel discussion will focus on the current state of antisemitism in the United States.  Rabbi David Ostrich will speak about the challenges facing congregations in the face of anti-Semitic sentiment.  Rabbi Rob Gleisser will address antisemitism on college campuses; and Emma Baer-Simon will discuss antisemitism on social media.
