Yavneh Minyan of Flatbush Special Event -- Monday Night, March 4
Israeli Foreign Policy and Holocaust Memory
with Guest Speaker
Sam Sokol
Join us Monday evening March 4th at 8 pm as Jerusalem-based correspondent and research fellow at the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy Sam Sokol returns to The Yavneh Minyan.
Mr. Sokol will discuss how Israel, which has long presented itself as a stalwart defender of Holocaust memory, over the past several years has often allowed realpolitik to trump antisemitism and memory in its foreign policy -- many times ignoring and sometimes even abetting historical revisionism.
SAM SOKOL is a Jerusalem-based correspondent and a research fellow at the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy. His work has appeared in JTA, the Times of Israel, Haaretz, the Forward, Columbia Journalism Review and the Israel Journal of Foreign Affairs. He was previously a reporter with the Israel Broadcasting Authority’s English-language news service and an international and Jewish affairs correspondent for the Jerusalem Post. He won the B’nai B’rith prize for Diaspora reportage in 2015 for his work on revolutionary Ukraine.
