How to Interrupt Antisemitism Without Losing Allies

Sunday, November 2nd
10:30am – 12:30pm Pacific
San Francisco

For many in the queer community, being Jewish or Israeli can bring moments of unease in spaces that should feel safe. Let’s gather together to build our community, clarity, and courage. Guided by Ron Glait, Director of Community Education at the Jewish Family and Children’s Services Holocaust Center, we will explore contemporary antisemitism as it relates to Israel and Zionism. We will also practice recognizing, responding to, and interrupting antisemitism.

This session is a collaboration between the Jewish Family and Children’s Services Holocaust Center and Queers Against Antisemitism, a program of A Wider Bridge. As the facilitator, Ron Glait brings a deeply personal commitment to this work as the grandchild of Holocaust survivors, an Israeli, and a member of the LGBTQ+ community. He holds a Master of Education from The Kibbutzim College of Education in Tel Aviv.

The conversation will draw on experiences from the LGBTQ+ Jewish community, but straight allies and non-Jewish allies are welcome to join us.

This workshop will take place on Sunday, November 2nd from 10:30 am – 12:30 pm Pacific. The in-person location in San Francisco will be provided to registrants no later than 24 hours in advance, and refreshments will be served.

This free event has limited capacity: Please only register if you will commit to attend. If your plans change, please cancel your registration by emailing bayareaqaa@awiderbridge.org. Thank you!
