SUMMARY:unBIASed: Two session skill-building workshop with Project Shema
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Two session skill-building workshop with Project Shema sponsored by ADL Florida, Temple Beth Am, and Temple Beth Sholom\nSession 1: A New Engagement Strategy\nMonday, April 21 from 7-9 pm\nThe Engagement Funnel is Project Shema’s paradigmatic roadmap for effective, empathetic engagement. In this session, we explore how to counter biases and tell stories that nurture empathy for the Jewish community. Participants will learn how to create trust and navigate difficult conversations about Jewish identity and anti-Jewish harm.\nSession 2: Funnel of Engagement\nMonday, May 12 from 7-9 pm\nThis session builds on the core content of the previous one and provides ample time for participants to practice and role-play this innovative engagement strategy. Participants will have opportunities to practice their story of self and tell stories that reveal the complexity of the Jewish community and our history. We’ll have time for practice and exercises in small and large groups.\nParticipation in both sessions is required in order to register.\nIf you are interested in joining 1 session only, please email Caroline or Jeff (emails below) to express interest and they will add you to list should spots become available for a single session.\nPer Project Shema, the content of these sessions is intended for a Jewish audience. Project Shema offers other programs for mixed audiences. If you’re interested, please email the below contacts to let us know.\nIn-person and virtual option. Participants are strongly encouraged to gather in-person at either: Temple Beth Am or Temple Beth Sholom.\nDrinks and snacks will be served. If in-person is not feasible, a zoom link will be shared with you after you submit this registration form. Project Shema facilitator will zoom in.\nQuestions? Email… Caroline Miller, Temple Beth Am, The unBIASed Initiative member: c.lampen.miller@gmail.com  ( mailto:c.lampen.miller@gmail.com ) or Jeff Agron, Temple Beth Sholom, Social Justice Program Director: jagron@tbsmb.org ( mailto:jagron@tbsmb.org )\nAbout Project Shema\nThe word shema comes from the Hebrew word “to hear,” and it’s this concept that guides everything we do. Listening with curiosity and compassion is at the center of our relational engagement approach. Our goal is to help others understand Jews’ stories, identities and lived experiences.\nProject Shema is a training and support organization focused on addressing contemporary antisemitism with an emphasis on how anti-Jewish ideas and implicit biases can be carried alongside conversations about Israel and Palestine. We do not offer education or advocacy on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. However, we do help upstanders understand Jewish identity and nurture empathy for Jewish traumas and lived experiences. Built by progressive Jews, our programs focus on depolarizing difficult conversations around anti-Jewish harm to strengthen allyship for and within the Jewish community.\n
