In the panel discussion "Divided We Fall: Antisemitism and Democracy in Crisis," experts examine the intersection of rising antisemitism, tensions in Black-Jewish relations, and the growth of Christian nationalism in the U.S., and how these factors threaten democratic stability. The Moment Institute Fellows, including Tom Gjelten, Dr. Sharon S. Nazarian, Ira N. Forman, and Eric K. Ward, explore how these divisive forces affect societal relations based on race and religion. They emphasize the importance of initiatives to combat these threats, aiming to restore security for Jewish communities and protect religious freedoms. Led by Nadine Epstein, this discussion also proposes strategies to counteract these troubling divides.
