SUMMARY:Tenafly Premiere: Frontline Warriors Documentary
DESCRIPTION:Teanfly Premiere: Frontline Warriors Documentary\n\n\n\nAISH HA’AM’s “Frontline Warriors” follows 3 brave Jewish students confronting extreme antisemitism on their campuses. \n\n\n\nKaplen JCC on the Palisades is hosting AISH HA’AM’s upcoming documentary\, Frontline Warriors\, which sheds light on the rising tide of antisemitism on University campuses across the United States. The film gives a window into this pervasive issue by following the story of three Jewish student leaders at Harvard\, Columbia\, and UCLA\, who faced and stood up to the Jew hatred on their campuses. \n\n\n\nThe film not only chronicles their courageous stand against hatred\, but also touches on the roots of antisemitism and underscoring that this prejudice is far from new. Through a comprehensive exploration of the main claims against Jews and Israel\, it separates fact from fiction\, examines the distinction between antisemitism and anti-Zionism\, and offers a roadmap for fostering unity and resilience within the global Jewish community. \n\n\n\nJoin Erik and Jill Mashler and the Kaplen JCC of the Palisades for an exclusive screening premiere. Attendees of the event will have the opportunity to support the inspiring student leaders featured in the film by casting your vote for AISH HA’AM in the upcoming World Zionist Congress Election. Your participation makes a difference! \n\n\n\nFollowing the film\, join us for a live panel with Shabbos Kestenbaum.  Shabbos is the lead plaintiff against Harvard University\, alleging pervasive and systemic antisemitism. He is a regular contributor on national media\, has testified in front of the United States Congress multiple times\, and lectures internationally on Jewish communal issues. \n\n\n\nThurs.
