Building Bridges in the Fight Against Hate
In this webinar, Facing History and Ourselves bring together Jewish and Muslim students who have formed bridge-building clubs in their schools and educators who have facilitated student dialogue across conflict will share their motivations and experiences with this work. The panel will feature educators from Seeds of Peace, a leadership development program that works with young people and educators in regions of conflict, and the Hand in Hand school, a fully integrated, bilingual Arab and Jewish school in Jerusalem. Panelists will discuss how building relationships across conflict humanizes those we perceive as the enemy and can be an effective strategy in combating the spread of antisemitism and Islamophobia.
