Friday, September 22, 7pm, Maynard Ave. United Methodist Church, 2350 Indianola Ave.

Dr. Amy Shuster will present a teach-in on the Jewish Voice for Peace Deadly Exchange Campaign. This campaign exposes the deadly falsehood, that violence against some communities will create security for others, that is perpetuated by the policies of both the U.S. and Israeli governments. One of the most dangerous places where the regimes of Trump and Netanyahu converge are in exchange programs that bring together police, ICE, the border patrol, and the FBI from the U.S., with soldiers, police, border agents, etc. from Israel. In these programs, “worst practices” are shared to promote and extend discriminatory and repressive policing in both countries, including extrajudicial executions, shoot-to-kill policies, police murders, racial profiling, massive spying and surveillance, deportation and detention, and attacks on human rights defenders.

Following the presentation, Dr. Shuster will lead a group discussion on how we can achieve real security in our community.

Free and open to the public; light refreshments will be served.
