Register and attend the joint MFSA and UMKR webinar addressing the question "Is is Antisemitic to Criticize the State of Israel?"

While antisemitism is a real and persistent evil that needs to be eradicated the charge of antisemitism can also be a highly potent weapon against the movement for Palestinian rights. Today that weapon is being used throughout the US and in many other countries to destroy personal reputations, bring legal charges against certain individuals and rob others of valuable opportunities, intimidate private and governmental institutions, and shut down free speech on campuses.  Our speakers, Bishop Hope Morgan Ward of the North Carolina Conference and Mark Braverman, Program Director of Kairos USA and author of "Fatal Embrace: Christians, Jews, and the Search for Peace in the Holy Land," will take a close look at this controversial question as it impacts the church, and discuss how we can appropriately respond.

Join on Wednesday, September 9, 2020 at 10am PT/ 1pm ET/ 5pm GMT/ 8pm Palestine by registering here.
