In these times of darkness, I invite you to join members of our movement and J Street President and Founder Jeremy Ben-Ami to reflect on the current crisis and map a safer and more peaceful future. Please join us on Saturday, March 9 at 7pm at Peninsula Temple Beth El in San Mateo.

Jeremy will share his analysis and J Street’s positions on the state of war since Hamas' horrific massacre on October 7 and where this leads us as a community of peacebuilders and advocates. With Jeremy’s behind-the-scenes insight, we’ll unpack the role of the American Jewish community, Congress and the Biden Administration in shaping a plan for long-term peace and security in the region.

Jeremy will also address what it means to be pro-Israel, pro-peace and pro-democracy at home in a moment where Trump and his far-right counterparts threaten to reclaim power ahead of the 2024 election.

We are honored to co-sponsor this event with Peninsula Temple Beth El, Peninsula Temple Sholom and The Peninsula Jewish Community Center. We hope to see you there.
