Dear John,

AJC Virtual Global Forum 2021 is rapidly approaching! [link removed] The premier global Jewish advocacy event, brought to you by American Jewish Committee (AJC), is now less than two weeks away, taking place June 6-9. And like last year, all sessions will be held online, so you can access them from home and free of charge!

As if we needed more of an incentive to come together to examine the pressing issues facing world Jewry, the events of the last few weeks have only added increased urgency to our advocacy agenda.

If you support Israel and want to discuss how we can strengthen her place in a changing Middle East, join us.

If you are concerned about rising antisemitism and hate—especially given the frightening attacks against Jews that we have witnessed in recent days—join us.

If you believe we must overcome our differences to restore a deeply divided America, join us.

If you haven’t already marked June 6-9 on your calendar, I hope you’ll do so now. [link removed] Be on the lookout for the full Virtual Global Forum schedule and session registration details coming your way next week.
