Event Details

American Jews and Muslims come together for a panel discussion on the moral responsibility of (inter)faith leaders in addressing the ongoing conflict in Israel-Palestine. The conversation will center on the deep trauma experienced by many, both historically and in the present, in light of the dehumanizing Anti-Muslim and Anti-Semitic rhetoric in the U.S. The panel will explore the essential role people of faith, particularly within Abrahamic traditions, play in combating hate and discrimination. It will also highlight strategies from Israeli-Palestinian and Abrahamic collaborative organizations as potential models for our communities, especially in this presidential election year. The aim is to create an open and inclusive space for discussing both faith and politics, even when differing perspectives arise.

Presented in partnership with American Islamic College, Lutheran School of Theology, Mishkan Chicago and Isma Shema. Moderated by Shoulder to Shoulder Campaign.
