Can We Talk? A Conversation About Antisemitism premiered on WEDU on September 23, 2021. The program featured honest conversation about the Jewish community, race, bias and antisemitism in our region. Community members came together to explore stereotypes and discrimination, historical analysis, advocacy and social reform.
Hosted by award-winning PBS journalist Ray Suarez, this program amplified voices from across the spectrum on this issue, from ordinary citizens to Rabbis, professors, activists and Holocaust historians. By incorporating compelling video stories and substantive discussions by experts in the field, this program sparked dialogue and offered a genuine opportunity to tackle a sensitive subject with a thoughtful approach.
