SUMMARY:Virtual: Joint Nakba Remembrance Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:On May 15\, 2025\, join the Joint Nakba Remembrance Ceremony\, hosted by Combatants for Peace and co-sponsored by NYJA and many other interfaith groups. This year’s theme—“Holding onto Home\, Holding onto Hope”—reflects on the enduring cycle of displacement and loss that Palestinians have experienced since 1948. Yet the ceremony also looks ahead. It affirms a vision of peace rooted in dignity and justice—a vision in which Palestinians are not defined by displacement\, but by their right to live freely and securely. Holding onto home is about more than geography; it is a commitment to reconciliation—not only for individuals\, but for the land itself. It is a vision of collective liberation\, where the oppressed are free from domination and the oppressors are freed from the systems that bind them to violence. It is a call to weave peace into the collective identity of all who call this place home. \n\nRegister to join us virtually: https://bit.ly/nakba2025

SUMMARY:All Politics is Local: Amy Spitalnick in Conversation with Andrew Silow-Carroll
DESCRIPTION:In-person at B’nai Jeshurun: This year’s mayoral election has had an outsized impact on the Jewish community in New York City and around the country\, shining a spotlight on the place of Judaism and Zionism in local politics. The race raised the already-high levels of tension and polarization in our NYC Jewish community\, and with the election over\, many of us are asking: Where do we go from here? Is a greater sense of unity possible? How can we go about healing the fractures among New York’s Jewish communities? \nAmy Spitalnick\, CEO of the Jewish Council on Public Affairs\, offers reflections and analysis in conversation with Andrew Silow-Carroll\, editor at large of the New York Jewish Week. \nThis event is part of the lecture series At a Crossroads: American Judaism at an Unprecedented Time and is hosted by B’nai Jeshurun. \n\nRegister here at no cost by selecting a non-member ticket and using the promo code ‘NYJA5786’.
