This wasn’t a hearing or a press conference. It was a moment of shared reflection among community members, congressional staff, faith leaders, and advocates, on the rising tide of antisemitism and Islamophobia, and on what Congress and civil society must do to confront it.
It was the result of months of quiet, determined work. And it was made possible by people like you.
We organized this event in partnership with the Jewish Council for Public Affairs, the Interfaith Alliance, and Union Theological Seminary, with support from Representatives Jamie Raskin and Lateefah Simon, who both offered heartfelt reflections. But the conversation wasn’t just about policy; it was about principle. What does it mean to protect democracy when communities are targeted? What does solidarity actually look like when fear and scapegoating are on the rise?
MPAC is committed to answering those questions not with statements, but with action. But we can’t do that without your support.
