SUMMARY:Coalition SPEAKER SERIES: Robin Washington on "The Myth of Jewish H
 omogeneity"
DESCRIPTION:Our speaker\, Robin Washington\, the editor-at-large of "The Fo
 rward\," says that during the last 2 years he has seen an overwhelming inc
 rease in the number of Jews who display some sort of intersectionality bet
 ween different sub-groups.\n\nExamples include Conservative Jews who also 
 actively identify as Hebrew Israelites\, European Lubavitchers from Hispan
 ic backgrounds and interfaith and interracial families of every stripe. Re
 cognizing this offers us a truer picture of ourselves\, and also a way to 
 constructively counter the monolithic stereotypes through which the rest o
 f the world views Jews.\n\nRobin grew up in a Chicago family of Black and 
 Jewish civil rights activists. He has gone on to chronicle the movement in
  his acclaimed PBS documentary\, "You Don't Have to Ride Jim Crow!" And\, 
 in 1995 he co-founded the Alliance of Black Jews.\n\nRobin's commentaries 
 have appeared in newspapers around the world\, as well as in books edited 
 by Ishmael Reed\, Charles Ogletree and Willard Jenkins. He is host of "Sim
 ply Superior" on Wisconsin Public Radio and was a Fellow in Science Broadc
 ast Journalism at WGBH Boston. He has also appeared on NPR\, BET\, MSNBC\,
  CNN\, Fox News and various other national media.\n\nJoin us!\n\nWith grat
 itude to Gloria and Marty Greenstein and the Rene Bloch Foundation.\n\n[gr
