Who should attend? This event is open to Jewish students.

This event is a Jewish student-directed and student-centred discussion on having difficult conversations about Jews, race, antisemitism, intersectionality and advocacy. What is antisemitism and how can it be identified? What is the process of engaging with our peers across differences, how do we understand multiple narratives and how do we engage in productive conversations?
