Webinar

As the new academic year begins, we are seeing rising challenges with antisemitism, including in K-12 education. On September 18, at 8:00 PM, this webinar will bring together leaders from the Jewish Institute for Liberal Values (JILV) to learn about these challenges and explore ways to fight the growing antisemitism in schools. The discussion will also address how Critical Social Justice (CSJ) ideology is impacting Jewish students and contributing to antisemitism in middle and high schools. The Jewish Institute for Liberal Values (JILV) aims to raise awareness about the complexities of CSJ and its influence within the Jewish community. JILV's mission is to empower Jews who support liberal values and oppose the imposition of CSJ, ensuring that Jewish organizations remain open to diverse viewpoints.

  • Dr. Brandy Shufutinsky. Director of Education and Community Engagement for JILV. Dr. Shufutinsky has an extensive background in advocating for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. Today, her focus is on advancing liberal democratic values through education and community engagement.
