Standing Up to Antisemitism

A masterclass with Dr Penny Rabiger.

This BRAP session, led by Dr Penny Rabiger, explores the context and history of Jewish people in the UK and beyond. It gives clarity on what antisemitism is within the context of racisms such as anti-Muslim and anti-Black racism. We will explore how to stand up against antisemitism in society and in education specifically.

There seems to be confusion about what constitutes antisemitism and why anti-Zionism is not anti-Jewish. Many educators are afraid to get things wrong. Much of the training offered enforces adherence to a specific definition of antisemitism which is widely contested by Jewish and other scholars as it conflates antisemitism and anti-Zionism.

The session will draw on Penny’s lived experience as a Jewish, dual British-Israeli citizen, and will help you differentiate between these separate and different concepts of Jewish, Israeli, Zionist. Participants will gain access to a number of resources to help you on your journey of unlearning what you think you might know.

This session, like all of brap's events, is open to all who choose to join the Equality Republic - brap's movement to transform equalities practice.
