IHRA: An Anti-Free-Speech Definition of Antisemitism and How to Oppose It

Apr

Sunday, April 30, 2023 at 05:00 PM

Sunday, April 30, 2pm Pacific/5 pm Eastern

Note: Please register before 12 pm Pacific/3 pm Eastern on the day of the webinar.
Registrations after that time might not receive the meeting link.

This UUJME-sponsored webinar explains the IHRA definition of antisemitism and its problematic aspect – it conflates antisemitism with opposition to Israeli violations of Palestinian human rights. This discussion is important because the IHRA definition is suddenly being adopted without discussion in many localities. While supporting the fight against real antisemitism, UUJME opposes the adoption of the IHRA definition by municipalities and legislatures. Remarkably even Kenneth Stern, the author of the IHRA definition, opposes its use in laws and on campuses because of the chilling effect it can have on free speech. The moderator of the discussion will be Unitarian Universalist minister Rev. Dr. Terasa Cooley, and our subject matter experts will be Lara Friedman, President of the Foundation for Middle East Peace, and Zeina Ashrawi Hutchison, a Palestinian American human rights advocate who recently faced the IHRA definition in the Virginia state legislature.
