Intro to AAJLJ: The Year that Was and the Year to Come
October 08, 2024

As we observe the Ten Days of Atonement marking the transition from Rosh Hashanah to Yom Kippur, and mark one year following the horrors of October 7th, and all that ensued, please join us for a special Zoom program on Tuesday, October 8th, at 12:00 noon ET.

In the coming days, we will mark the somber anniversary of the Hamas attack on Israel, and the challenges that have faced the Jewish community in the United States and globally during the succeeding year. We are excited by this opportunity to share our ideas on the path forward, including a special announcement about the launch of our revised and updated website. 

We will be discussing AAJLJ's activities over the past year combating antisemitism and prospects for further action, as follows:

Alyssa Grzesh, AAJLJ Director of Programming, moderator and presenter on AAJLJ outreach to Jewish Law Students Associations.

Rhonda Lees, AAJLJ VP, on her work in addressing antisemitism at her undergraduate university. 

Arthur Traldi, AAJLJ Board Member, on AAJLJ's friend-of-the-court advocacy.

Richard Foltin, AAJLJ Executive Director, on the deplatforming of "Zionists," on campus and elsewhere, as the new antisemitism.

Robert Garson, AAJLJ President, will conclude with remarks on his vision for AAJLJ action in the coming year.

Please email Richard Foltin, [email protected], with any questions.
