In this presentation and workshop we explore how traditional Jewish texts have been mobilized for racist purposes, consider the radical criticisms of Judaism as a “racial project,” and articulate a clear and distinct anti-racist tradition in Jewish history.
Elliot Ratzman teaches Religion, Jewish Studies, and Peace Studies at Earlham College. He is completing a book, Zipporah’s Knife: A Jewish Reckoning with Race. He is part of the leadership team for Bend the Arc-Jewish Action, and involved with the pacifist Jewish Peace Fellowship. https://earlham.
