Historical Notes

Classrooms Without Borders (Pittsburgh, Pa.) hosted the "Antisemitism, Hate and Social Responsibility" conference at Rodef Shalom Congregation on November 10-11, 2019 as a response to the attack at the Tree of Life synagogue on October 27, 2018. The conference was open to the public but designed to help academics, educators, students and clergy find ways to bring the lessons of October 27 into their work. Speakers included scholars and experts from across the country. Classrooms Without Borders (Pittsburgh, Pa.) was established in 2011 in association with the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh. The organization promotes universal human values and an understanding of antisemitism and contemporary hatred, and it connects educators to opportunities that will enrich learning in the classroom.
