This event is open to anyone interested in learning more about the ancestral resistance, strength, imagination, and humor of the Jewish anarchist tradition and its contemporary manifestations. We'll explore resurgent antisemitism, the role of Jewish radicals in struggles for liberation, intersections with queerness, and the unique character of Jewish organizing in the South.

Through stories at once poetic and poignant, There Is Nothing So Whole as a Broken Heart offers a powerful elixir for all who rebel against systemic violence and injustice. The contemporary renewal of Jewish anarchism draws on a history of antisemitism, enslavement, displacement, white supremacy, and genocide as well as ancestral resistance, strength, imagination, and humor--all qualities, and wisdom, sorely needed today.
