  In Roundtable Session: Toward an Inclusive Future: Unpacking Racial and Anti-Semitic Narratives via Film, Linguistic Identity, and Professional Development (Table 1)

Abstract

This summer a Fellowship and Summer Institute on Antisemitism and Jewish Inclusion will launch at a school of education. Aimed for teacher educators and administrators, the professional development will place Jews/antisemitism squarely within discussions of diversity/inclusion—in curricula—and work towards inclusivity. An action research study of the pilot’s effectiveness will follow.
