Educators, Palestine, and How to Navigate False Accusations of Antisemitism with Dr. Alice Rothchild & Nora Lestor Murad

When librarians and teachers who include Palestinians in their work are falsely attacked as antisemitic, the consequences can be devastating. As education and speech have become so politicized, it makes sense to ask: If I am falsely accused of antisemitism, how can I defend myself?

Alice Rothchild and Nora Lester Murad have developed a toolkit for teachers, librarians, and other educators to help them navigate these often difficult questions: bit.ly/K12TOOLKIT

Please join Jewish Voice for Peace Boston for a discussion on this toolkit and how educators can build support to try to reduce the impacts of attacks before they arise, and constructive ways to respond if they do.
