About the Conference: The last two years have challenged our American Jewish communities with pressing questions about democracy and justice both here and in Israel. Recent events have raised questions about Jewish power, Messianism, the occupation, U.S. support for Israel and the conduct of war. We watch in dismay as our Orthodox and observant communities have avoided these discussions and remained indifferent to the staggering Palestinian civilian death toll in Gaza and the ongoing occupation of 5 million people. This conference will explore our Jewish tradition’s values and teachings teachings about peace, equality, dignity, co-existence and self-determination for Israelis, Palestinians and all people.
