8:00 PM - 9:30 PM

What does it mean to be Jewish, white and living in the United States in 2016?  When and how did light-skinned Jews become white in the first place?  How do we navigate successfully between our white identity and our Jewish identity to reach the Promised Land of freedom and justice for all?

Please join us for history and conversation as we begin together to explore what it means to bring our full selves to these historical times of crisis and opportunity…
