“When the President started warning that he might not concede the election in November if he loses, some people began planning for the worst.”

Political education? In a time like this? YES.
When the world is in chaos there is no better time to look at the successes and strategies of change-makers and movements that have come before us. Our people’s rich history is full of revolutionary ideas and actions, and of course some teachable failures. How much do you know about Jews in modern political struggle? Or in the American labor movement? Or during “Red Scare”? Find out more through communal learning and other exciting virtual resources we are bringing to the East Side Jews & SIJCC community. This newly formed, constantly growing, radical minyan-ish group is excited to dive into research, essays, movies, and more, to explore the Jewish relationship to activism in modern political history. All ages and backgrounds are encouraged to join!
We meet bi-weekly and never run out of things to say!
THIS WEEK:
Our conversation will be informed by a piece from The New Yorker:
“What Can You Do If Trump Stages a Coup?”
Please read the article prior to this meeting, or just come excited to hear people discuss it!
Hosted by East Side Jews Activist Collective (ESJAC)
