Daniel and Helen shed light on race, identity, and the power of allyship within Asian and Jewish communities.

With the rise of antisemitism in recent years, many in the Jewish community are questioning whether the allies they once relied on are still showing up. To address these concerns, AJU is launching a three-part series that examines the current potential for coalitions against hate with key communities: African American, Asian American, and LGBTQ+. Each program will feature AJU President Jeffrey Herbst in dialogue with experts on these communities, providing fresh perspectives on allyship that are often missing from Jewish conversations.

Part three of this three-part series features a dynamic conversation with Daniel Tam-Claiborne and Helen Kim, who will explore the intersection of Asian American and Jewish solidarity in combating antisemitism, shedding light on race, identity, and the power of cross-community allyship.
