About this episode
In this special Thanksgiving throwback episode, we revisit two important conversations from this past summer. First up is Eric Ward, Executive Director of the Western States Center, who discusses his experience as a leader in the Black community committed to fighting antisemitism and how the Black and Jewish communities can work together to combat hate. Then, we hear from Rabbi Angela Buchdahl, Senior Rabbi of Manhattan's Central Synagogue and member of AJC's Board of Governors, about her experiences as a Jew of Color and the Jewish community's obligation to social justice. _____ Episode Lineup: [3:00] Eric Ward [15:36] Rabbi Angela Buchdahl _____ Show Notes: To make your year-end gift to AJC, go to AJC.org/Donate Eric Ward's Full Interview: https://www.ajc.org/news/podcast/eric-ward-on-racial-justice-a-conversation-with-benny-gantz Angela Buchdahl's Full Interview: https://www.ajc.org/news/podcast/rabbi-angela-buchdahl-on-jews-and-race-election-2020-debate Skin in the Game by Eric Ward: https://www.politicalresearch.org/2017/06/29/skin-in-the-game-how-antisemitism-animates-white-nationalism
