SUMMARY:A Conversation with the Tzedek Center
DESCRIPTION:Building Bridges Between Israel’s Arabs and Jews Through Community Organizing: A Conversation with the Tzedek Center\nNovember 21\, 2024 | 7-8 PM  \nThe Tzedek Centers Movement is an Israeli organization that brings together people in Israel’s mixed cities to participate in training programs for social change. They firmly believe that local civic organizing is the key to addressing and transforming inequality\, social polarization\, and lack of trust. \nIn this talk with Lev Littman (Co-Executive Director)\, we will hear how grassroots efforts across all 18 Tzedek Centers—many located in Israel’s most challenging frontline cities – are revitalizing democracy\, fostering leadership\, and empowering communities. Lev will be joined by colleagues Bar Kolodny (Partnerships Director)\, Michal Salamon (Financial Development Director)\, and Gil Amit Zamir (Director of Mefalsei Nativ). A Q&A will follow. \nRegistration is required. Register here!

SUMMARY:The Last Night of Ballyhoo
DESCRIPTION:Set in the elitist upper class German-Jewish community of the South\, The Last Night of Ballyhoo tells the story of a family who’s desire to assimilate has all but erased their Jewish identity. Things change when Joe (a visitor from New York) meets Sunny (a Junior at Wellesley) and challenges her to embrace and accept her heritage. By centering the German and Slavic Jewish divide\, and setting it in Atlanta right on the precipice of WW2\, Uhry weaves a deeply human story that expertly reveals the absolute lunacy of every kind of prejudice. While witnessing these characters struggle with their identity\, Uhry brings the audience to one conclusion: There is no “us vs them”. There is only us. \nFor more information\, visit https://www.citytheatreaustin.org/now.html
