Join us for a look at how antisemitism and hate have evolved through the years and is presenting itself in modern times. Together we will analyze data, trends, and ways to combat the rise in hate through educational and community programming. Featuring guest speaker Leah White, ADL Texoma, Senior Associate Regional Director.
The program includes Kristallnacht commemoration and middle and high school art competition winners with Kristallnacht student art on display.
Kristallnacht—the Night of Broken Glass—saw the destruction of thousands of synagogues and Jewish institutions. Even though this night occurred 84 years ago, the world still has not learned the lessons of the past. Antisemitism continues to rise throughout the world.
