Light in Polarized Times: Confronting Antisemitism through the Liberal Arts In-Person
In a time of rising antisemitism, this interdisciplinary panel engages the theme From Darkness to Light to examine and explore meaningful responses to this enduring phenomenon. Moving from a critical analysis of antisemitism’s enduring “darkness” to constructive engagements with “light,” panelists consider the roles of pedagogy, interfaith dialogue, artistic practice, and civil and memorial discourse in understanding, confronting, and countering antisemitism.
Panelists:
Dr. Dina Al Raffie Hühn, Center for International Relations
Dr. Mark Frisch, Center for Hispanic Studies
Dr. Anna Floerke Scheid, Department of Theology
Kochav Koren Nobre Cavalcante, Department of Communication & Rhetorical Studies
