Dear Friend,
It goes without saying that this year’s Yom Ha’atzmaut, Israel’s Independence Day, will be unlike any other. With hostages still in captivity, no end in sight to the war or humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and tensions boiling at protests in both Israel and the US, Israelis and Jews around the world will mark the establishment of the Jewish state 76 years ago.
At this moment, when so many in our movement are holding multiple hard truths simultaneously, we are proud to join our Progressive Israel Network partners in marking the holiday by hosting a Yom Ha’atzmaut webinar.
Please join us on Tuesday, May 14 at 2pm Eastern for this celebration, featuring an appearance from our friend and partner Representative Jerry Nadler.
We're also honored to be joined by Israeli activists Ami Dror and Shir Nosatzki, Rabbi Andrea London, and Israeli-born singer Danny Maseng. Register here >>
We look forward to seeing you on May 14. Please feel free to forward this invitation to your communities and networks.
Thank you,
Sam Berkman
National Director of Communal Relations, J Street
