Discussion of PBS series, Black and Jewish America: An Interwoven History, with panel discussion featuring Black and Jewish elders.
Black and Jewish America: An Interwoven History is a four-part PBS series tracing the rich, complex relationship between Black and Jewish Americans—defined by solidarity and strained by division. Drawn together by racism and antisemitism, they forged civic and cultural bonds, especially during the civil rights era. The series, available for streaming, explores both the challenges and enduring promise of that alliance. Panelists will provide their own experiences and observations on this history, as well as challenges and hopes for future collaboration.
Doors Open at 6:30 pm. Light refreshments available.
