Building upon a meaningful Main Event that brought together more than 1,150 members of our community to stand up against the epidemic of anti-Semitism, the Greater Miami Jewish Federation Jewish Community Relations Council is convening two important programs to address this growing threat.

On Thursday, February 6, from 7-9 p.m. at Temple Judea, 5500 Granada Boulevard, Coral Gables, a panel of activists from A Wider Bridge, Israel Action Network and Zioness Movement will share their experiences of navigating anti-Semitism while working in progressive spaces. RSVP here. On Tuesday, February 11, from 7-9 p.m. at Temple Sinai, 18801 NE 22nd Avenue, North Miami Beach, the ADL's Center on Extremism will discuss threats from anti-Semitism and extremism from the far right. RSVP here. Both programs are free and open to the public.
