Beyond Borders: Antisemitism, Islamophobia, and the Israel-Palestine Divide

Beyond Borders: Antisemitism, Islamophobia, and the Israel-Palestine Divide

• Presented by the Krieger School of Arts & Sciences and Hopkins at Home
• Featuring Dr. Hussein Rashid, Michelle Goldberg and Samer Sinjlawi, moderated by Sarah Wildman • 

Join our speakers to examine the rise of Antisemitism and Islamophobia particularly in light of current events surrounding the Israel-Palestine conflict. Participants will explore how these forms of prejudice manifest in public discourse, social movements, and media narratives, often exacerbating divisions and hindering constructive dialogue. The conversation will address the historical and cultural roots of these biases, their impact on affected communities. We will explore the question - what are the responsibilities of educators, policymakers, and activists in combating hate while fostering mutual understanding and respect?

This event is part of the ongoing discussion series, "Conflict in the Middle East: Context and Ramifications." For more information about other upcoming events in the series, click here.
