<[link removed]>Friend —
Last night, we brought together hundreds of Jews and allies to hear from a panel of experts on antisemitism, safety, and solidarity.
Yesterday, JTA published a powerful op-ed by my colleague Rachèl Laforest about the intersections of racism and antisemitism, with her unique perspective as a Haitian Jew.1
On Tuesday, I hosted a conversation with Rep. Andy Kim (NJ-03) and leaders from our South Jersey chapter to discuss antisemitism and the upcoming election.
Monday, Bend the Arc trained dozens of Jewish and progressive leaders on how to respond effectively to antisemitic incidents.
Last week, we launched into action after Trump claimed Jews would be responsible for his election loss.
Bend the Arc is on multiple frontlines of the fight to dismantle antisemitism and build a country with safety and thriving for all of us. But this work takes resources. Can you chip in with $3, or any other amount, to help us continue this critical work in the weeks and months ahead? <[link removed]>
<[link removed]>We know antisemitism is a threat to our Jewish communities, to all of us who are fighting for justice in this country, and to the future of democracy itself. And we know that we can dismantle it by working together.
So in the new Jewish year, 5785, we’ll keep training leaders across the country, building messaging and advocacy tools, calling out dangerous rhetoric, and rising up with our partners in solidarity to build a democracy where our multiracial Jewish community — and all threatened by white nationalism — are safe and free.
Winning the future we dream of will take all our skills and commitment, and staying resilient and present through hard times. Join me today by investing in our work to dismantle antisemitism with a donation of $3 — or any amount that’s meaningful to you — as we head into the new year. <[link removed]>
With gratitude and in solidarity,
Jamie Beran
CEO, Bend the Arc

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.
