Project Shema is a training and support organization built by progressives to help the Jewish community and allies challenge anti-Jewish ideas. This training aims to deepen understanding across lines of difference by nurturing empathy for Jewish identity, traumas and lived experiences.
In this workshop, participants will learn:
- How Jews understand their identity and history
- What contemporary antisemitism is and how it operates
- Why anti-Jewish motifs and dehumanizing rhetoric about Jews and others is spreading and presenting itself in this unique moment
- How to spot harmful rhetoric and be an ally to the Jewish community while honoring the dignity of all
This workshop is co-sponsored by Interfaith Ministries for Greater Houston and Holocaust Museum Houston.
