Join USC Annenberg for a discussion about the impact of Israeli-Palestinian violence on antisemitism and anti-Arab racism. We’ll discuss topics such as:

• When and how does anger at Israeli actions against Palestinians, such as the evictions in Sheikh Jarrah and the shelling of Gaza’s civilians, morph into antisemitism in the U.S.?
• When and how does anger at Palestinian actions against Israel, such as Hamas missiles striking Israeli civilians, morph into anti-Arab racism in the U.S.?

Speakers:

• Ethan Katz, Associate Professor in the Department of History and the Center for Jewish Studies, UC Berkeley
• James Zogby, founder and president of the Arab American Institute (AAI)
• Moderated by Diane Winston, Knight Chair in Media and Religion at USC Annenberg

This event is co-sponsored by the Arab American Institute, Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism, T’ruah: The Rabbinic Call for Human Rights, and the New York Jewish Agenda.
