Monday Minute

 

Discussion on Israel with Sisterhood

Thursday, November 2nd // 6:30 pm // MPR

CBI Sisterhood is offering members an opportunity to learn more about
Israel's past and present. This will be a two- part discussion on Israel,
moderated by Lisa Friedman and Barbara Ismail.

Part one is scheduled for Thursday, November 2nd at 6:30 PM at CBI.

We will unpack our questions about Israel's history and the current
situation followed by an open forum to share and discuss our thoughts. We
encourage all to read Israel, by Noa Tishby which provides a clear and
readable account of Israel's history. Tishby debunks many misperceptions and
provides clear perspectives for us to better understand Israel and her
challenges.

Part two scheduled for Tuesday, November 21st at 7 PM at CBI.

We will have an open discussion based on topics raised in Tishby's book. We
will discuss and share our learning to deepen our understandings. We will
consider opportunities for us to be equipped to enter conversations with
factual evidence that supports Israel and the Jewish people.

Please RSVP to Barbara Ismail at 973 462 5971.

If you would like to attend the Federation event at 7:30, please register

Please note - because of these events, Evening Minyan on Thursday, 11/2,
will take place in-person and on Zoom at 7:00 pm.

 

Progressive Antisemitism: What's Happening and How to Combat It

Featuring Blake Flayton, Jewish Social Media Influencer, Journalist, and
Activist

Thursday, November 2nd // 7:30- 9:00 pm // CBI

High school students and their parents (and anyone interested) are invited
to join Jewish social media influencer, journalist, and activist Blake
Flayton for a conversation about the current trend of antisemitism coming
from the progressive left, and how to combat it. In 2019, while a student at
George Washington University, he wrote an essay for The New York Times
entitled "On the Frontlines of Progressive Anti-Semitism," and in it stated:
I am a young, gay, left-wing Jew. Yet I am called an "apartheid-enabler," a
"baby killer" and a "colonial apologist."

Blake will talk about the rise of antisemitism in the Diaspora after the
October 7 massacre with JCRC Steering Committee member Jordana Horn Gordon.
