Honoring Our Shared Humanity: Understanding Islamophobia and Antisemitism
A panel discussion to help build understanding about both Islamophobia and antisemitism will be held at the Castro Valley Library on Sunday, August 25 at 2 pm.
Since the escalation of violence in Israel and Gaza in October 2023, both Islamophobic and antisemitic incidents have surged in the U.S.
Representing a premier educational organization on Islamophobia and antisemitism, a panel featuring Maha Elgenaidi (Muslim speaker) and Karen Stiller (Jewish speaker) will join us to shed light on these forms of bigotry and offer recommendations on strategies to combat these prejudices at both interpersonal and institutional levels.
Written questions from the audience will be accepted and read by the moderator from the Eden Area Interfaith Council. Biographies for the panelists are available by visiting https://ing.org/
Registration is required at www.aclibrary.org or by calling 510/667-7900.
