NatanSalon: Exploring the IHRA Working Definition on Antisemitism

Featuring: Holly Huffnagle, AJC | Amanda Berman, Zioness | Rabbi Josh Weinberg, URJ for Israel and Reform Judaism, ARZA

The International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) Working Definition of Antisemitism has been enthusiastically and widely adopted by entities and governments around the world. And yet, local Jewish communities continue to wrestle with it, particularly because of its inclusion of examples of contemporary antisemitism that illustrate the demonization/delegitimization/double standards applied to Israel and how they can be expressions of antisemitism. Three leading experts, Holly Huffnagle, AJC’s U.S. Director of Combating Antisemitism; Amanda Berman, Executive Director of Zioness; and Rabbi Josh Weinberg, Executive Director of the Association of Reform Zionists of America, who will help us explore the ways in which this definition has been embraced by some and refuted by others. We look forward to you joining us for, what we believe will be, a lively and fascinating discussion.
