DESCRIPTION:Fighting Antisemitism Through the Lens of Collective Liberation\n\nPlease 
 join Haymarket Books, Jewish Voice for Peace, and PARCEO for a timely 
 conversation on fighting antisemitism through a collective liberation 
 lens\n\nWednesday, December 13th from 10:30-11:30 AM PT (1:30 - 2:30 PM 
 ET/12:30-1:30 PM CT)\n\nRegister through Ticket Tailor to receive a link to

 This event will also be recorded and captioning will be provided\n\n\nAs 
 Israel's genocidal war against Palestinians rages on with full backing of 
 the US government, we are also witnessing a terrifying rise in 
 anti-Palestinian, anti-Arab, anti-Muslim, and antisemitic bigotry and 
 violence here at home. \n\nJewish communal spaces have been graffitied with 
 swastikas; neo-Nazis have marched through Madison; Palestinian college 
 students are experiencing mass censorship; three Palestinian college 
 students were shot; a six-year-old Palestinian child was murdered; and 
 rightwing white supremacists are gaining wide audiences. In this moment, 
 the only answer is solidarity among our communities and a true commitment 
 to collective liberation.\n\nBut a coordinated campaign from the Israeli 
 and US governments and organizations like the \nAnti Defamation League 
 (ADL) is aiming to misstate and even legally redefine antisemitism in order 
 to buffer the Israeli government from accountability for its war crimes. 
 \n\nWe see this from the House of Representatives regularly pushing forward 
 dangerous and harmful conflations between antisemitism with criticism of 
 Israel, to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer delivering a speech on the 
 Senate floor that misstates what antisemitism is and largely ignores the 
 central threat of white nationalism in the fight against antisemitism. 
 \n\nWe need to understand what antisemitism is (and what it is not) so that 
 we can fight it effectively, along with all forms of 
 injustice.\n\n\nSPEAKERS:\n\nBarry Trachtenberg, Rubin Presidential Chair 
 of Jewish History at Wake Forest University.\n\nNyle Fort, Assistant 
 Professor, African American and African Diaspora Studies,\nColumbia 
 University\n\nBeth Miller, Political Director, Jewish Voice for Peace 
 Action\n\nModerator: \nNina Mehta, co-director of 
 PARCEO\n\n------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nThis
