On Wednesday, July 17th at 7:00 pm, Congregation Beth Shalom of Clifton Park is sponsoring a talk and follow-up question and answer session with Professor Stephen Berk. The discussion topic will be:
“An Analysis Delving Into Free Speech, Antisemitism, and the DEI Culture at College Campuses”
Of late, Antisemitism and other religious discrimination have been rearing its ugly head on domestic campuses. Students of Jewish faith and other religious faiths are increasingly fearful as are other minority groups. This is what makes this topic so timely.
A thoughtful discussion – Professor Berk has been teaching at Union College for over 50 years and he is recognized as one of the most prominent historians and speakers in the United States. He has appeared numerous times on national TV, has spoken to groups all over the world, and is considered by his colleagues to be incredibly thoughtful on this complicated topic.
We hope you can join us! This event, because of limited seating, will be by reservation only. Please call Jackie at the Congregation to reserve your seat at: (518)-371-0608.
There will be no charge and no solicitations.
