While a few voices have started to declare an end to the two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Daniel Gordis continues to believe in two states for two peoples. He argues that promoting any other solution means ignoring what the people actually living between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea — Jews and Arabs — actually want. Join Daniel Gordis, Senior Vice President and Koret Distinguished Fellow at Shalem College, to listen to why he believes a two-state solution is still worth pursuing and what leads some American Jews to grow distant from Israel.

Join AJC and founding members of the Congressional Black-Jewish Caucus on Wednesday, July 22 for a special program honoring the life and legacy of Congressman John Lewis, the civil rights giant who worked closely with the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and served more than 32 years in the U.S. House of Representatives. Representative Lewis’ relationship with AJC spanned decades, from his creation of the Atlanta Black-Jewish Coalition, to, most recently, serving as a co-chair for the bipartisan Congressional Black-Jewish Caucus, launched at the AJC Global Forum in June 2019. He was honored with AJC Atlanta’s Selig Distinguished Service Award (1994), AJC’s Congressional Leadership Award (2005), and AJC’s American Liberties Medallion (2018). |
