Connections: Bridging Religious Differences

During this hour, we discuss antisemitism, Islamophobia, and bridging religious differences.

Mehnaz Afridi, Ph.D., is from Pakistan, is a practicing Muslim, and teaches at Manhattan College. She's the director of the college's Holocaust, Genocide and Interfaith Education Center. She'll be in Rochester on November 12 for several events, including a panel discussion on antisemitism and Islamophobia at the Jewish Federation of Greater Rochester, and a keynote speech about Jewish-Muslim reconciliation for MCC's Kristallnacht program.
