SUMMARY:An Evening with Ari'el Stachel
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to be welcoming Tony and Grammy Award winner Ari’el Stachel to TBJ for an unforgettable evening of theater and conversation. \nAt a time of rising antisemitism and deep cultural division\, actor and activist Ari’el Stachel invites audiences into his experiences with OCD\, assimilation\, and the complicated evolution of his complex identity. It also reflects on the aftermath of October 7th\, confronting the painful complexity of holding both Arab and Jewish identity in a world increasingly demanding division. The result is a deeply personal\, politically urgent\, and darkly funny exploration of identity\, resilience\, and what it means to reclaim wholeness\, onstage and off. \nAudiences may recognize Ari’el from The Band’s Visit\, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit\, Olivia Wilde’s Don’t Worry Darling (Warner Bros.) and his widely recognized Jewish advocacy work online and beyond. \nThis is an evening you will not want to miss. \nSponsored by Terri & Michael Goldberg

SUMMARY:Gathering Evidence of Atrocities: Investigations in the Former Soviet Union\, Guatemala\, Iraq\, and Ukraine - Session 1
DESCRIPTION:In honor of the International Day of Commemoration and Dignity of the Victims of the Crime of Genocide and of the Prevention of this Crime and Human Rights Day\, join the Holocaust Resource Center and YAHAD – IN UNUM virtually for a two-part experience exploring how historical evidence\, survivor testimony\, and investigative research help uncover\, document\, and understand genocide and mass violence. These are both VIRTUAL events. \nSession 1: The Holocaust by Bullets: Investigating Mass Murder in Eastern Europe\nThis session will introduce participants to the Holocaust by Bullets and Yahad – In Unum’s investigative methodology. Using eyewitness testimony\, archival documents\, maps\, and other historical evidence\, participants will explore how our researchers reconstruct the process of mass shootings at the local level. A short case study will demonstrate both the investigative process and how this methodology can be translated into a classroom activity. The session will also introduce additional educational resources available to teachers.
