PROJECT SHEMA

Concerns over growing antisemitism globally, including in the American progressive movement, and whether progressives support the right and need for Jewish national self-determination in the state of Israel, have understandably elevated fears inside the American Jewish community.

 

Named after the Hebrew word which means "to hear" or "listen", Project Shema offers a series of workshops designed to help the American Jewish community better understand and engage progressives on issues of core concern, like Israel and antisemitism. We also offer workshops to help the community better understand how to engage as allies in the fight for justice.

 

Project Shema seeks to help Jewish organizations and advocates build stronger bonds of trust between our Jewish community and members of the progressive movement.
