SUMMARY:Let's Talk About It: Navigating Conversations on Antisemitism
DESCRIPTION:A new program from the JCC East Bay that centers on teens\, and parents of teens\, to be in community as we learn and grow through diverse discussions.\n______________________________________________________ \nJanuary 28\, 2024 – Navigating Conversations on Antisemitism\nJoin us as we learn about the historical roots of antisemitism and how it shows up in school and online.\nFacilitated by the Anti-Defamation League\, the session will support teens and parents with suggestions and tools for responding to antisemitic incidents and provide space to discuss concerns and experiences within our community and reflect on how we can better support our families and teens. \n  \n\nMarch 3\, 2024 – Understanding Jewish Life on Campus\nWhat can it look like to be Jewish on school campuses?

All are welcome to join this special gathering to hear and honor the Holocaust story of one of our community members. This event will include opportunities to reflect\, ask questions\, and ground our awareness and education about the Holocaust in a warm and supportive community\, with an age-appropriate lens. \nMay the memories of all lost in the Holocaust forever be a blessing.\nזיכרונם לברכה \n______________________________________________________ \n3-session series: $36\n2-session: $25\nSingle-session: $18\n*No cost for existing Midrasha teens/families \n______________________________________________________ \nThis series is presented in partnership by the JCC East Bay\, ADL\, and Berkeley Hillel.  \n\n  \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Z3 Conference 2023
DESCRIPTION:On November 5th\, come together in Palo Alto for the 9th annual Z3 Conference\, the home and hub for honest dialogue between Israeli and the Diaspora Jewish communities. \nAs we go forward\, considering how the situation in Israel has changed\, so inevitably will the relationship between the Diaspora and Israelis\, in ways we cannot foresee. Z3 programming and content always aim to create an environment for learning\, debate and growth. The Z3 Conference is proceeding with a renewed focus. We are redesigning the conference to respond to these unfolding unimaginable events in a way that will help us heal and draw strength from one another. \nThe Z3 Project is an initiative of the Oshman Family JCC in Palo Alto\, CA. Promoting a stronger relationship between Diaspora Jewry and Israel\, the Z3 project is dedicated to modeling how Zionism can evolve\, and how Jewish communities can come together for meaningful discussions about the Diaspora and Israel. \nSince 2015\, Z3 has gathered leading voices from across the political spectrums of Israel and America for a day of debate and conversation\, aimed at creating a new model of Jewish engagement in the 21st century. \n  \nRegister here.
