Understanding Anti-Semitism in a Global Climate of Extremism
Presented by American Sephardi Federation
Panel Discussion
This panel – featuring Richard Sassoon and Ahmed Flex-Omar – will critically address the history, evolution, and dramatic growth of Anti-Semitism in the ideologies of violent Muslim extremist groups. Specifically, we will examine the ways in which historical perspective and recognition both accentuates the importance of confronting prejudice of all kinds, and encourages early intervention where bigotry threatens the safety, or well-being of any community.
Tickets: $5, reservation required

We would also like to highlight several members’ chapters published in Susan Lord’s book, Moments of Meeting in Psychoanalysis: Interaction and Change in the Therapeutic Encounter.  News of various presentations around the world made by IARPP members completes this issue of the Bookshelf.
