Dear Friend,

From Congress to college campuses to our communities, efforts to fight antisemitism are present and urgent. If you’re feeling frustrated, scared, or alone, Bend the Arc is organizing an opportunity for all of us to learn and connect:

How We Fight Antisemitism Now:
A Panel on Safety, Solidarity, and Winning Our Future
Thursday, September 26, 6:30 - 8:00pm ET

— featuring —

• Ben Lorber & Shane Burley, authors of the book Safety Through Solidarity: A Radical Guide to Fighting Antisemitism
• Maya Berry, Executive Director of Arab American Institute
• Rachèl Laforest, Chief Campaigns Officer at Bend the Arc

The safety and freedoms Jews enjoy in our country today were won by our ancestors and allies in progressive movements, working together across difference, even when it was hard. The practice of safety in solidarity is just that — a practice.

To help us grow these skills, we’ve put together a panel with incredible experts on how we build a thriving multiracial democracy, where all of us – not just some of us – can be safe and free.

At the event, you’ll hear stories about Jews and allies joining together across difference to fight antisemitism and all forms of oppression, strategies for building coalitions that strengthen the multiracial democracy we need to keep all of us safe, what’s at stake as we head into November, and how we can take action together.

RSVP for How We Fight Antisemitism Now: A Panel on Safety, Solidarity, and Winning Our Future, coming up on Thursday, September 26.

L’Shalom,

Graie Hagans
Chief Vision Officer, Bend the Arc

Help power our movement forward

We're rising up alongside all who are impacted by antisemitism, anti-Black racism, and white supremacy to fight for the joyful future we deserve — a future where Black liberation is realized and where all of us are safe and thriving, no matter what we look like or where we come from.
