Chicago Deadly Exchange Tour:
A Downtown Chicago tour exploring the impact of U.S.-Israel police and military training exchange programs
Thursday, July 13, 6 pm - 8 pm
Downtown meeting place TBD, RSVP required
RSVP here (http://jewishvoiceforpeace.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=44fda0b60aa5102296294048f&id=23062aa7a7&e=079ae7db83)
One of the most dangerous places where the regimes of Trump and Netanyahu converge is in exchange programs that bring together police, ICE, border patrol, and FBI from the US with soldiers, police, border agents, etc. from Israel. In these programs, “worst practices” are shared to promote and extend discriminatory and repressive policing in both countries.
On July 13, we're going to be trying a new way to wrap our heads around the impact of these Deadly Exchanges and the various U.S. and Israeli systems of oppression they are intertwined with.
We'll be taking a tour of Downtown Chicago and stop at various locations along the way that illustrate the who, what, why and where of these exchanges - and the way in which they strengthen the bonds between enforcers of a dangerous status quo that criminalizes people based on identity.
RSVP here (http://jewishvoiceforpeace.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=44fda0b60aa5102296294048f&id=1ead58d374&e=079ae7db83).
Note: We will be moving around downtown without use of public transportation or vehicles for approximately two hours, with a series of 15-20 minute stops. Participation will be capped - but not to worry if you aren't able to participate in this first one. We'll be doing it again!
At Jewish Voice for Peace, we are appalled that the organizers of the exchanges are predominantly U.S.-based Jewish organizations, including the Anti-Defamation League, the American Jewish Committee, the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs, and AIPAC, among others. Check out this article by Alex Kane in Truthout (http://jewishvoiceforpeace.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=44fda0b60aa5102296294048f&id=130dbfede7&e=079ae7db83) detailing how the exchanges provide a two-way channel for surveillance and weapons technology and worsen police oppression both in the U.S. and in Palestine.
The Disappearance of Yemenite Children in Israel
Co-sponsored by Tzedek Chicago and Jewish Voice for Peace-Chicago
Sponsored by Tzedek Chicago and Jewish Voice for Peace - Chicago
Saturday, July 8, 7 PM - 9 PM
St. Luke's Lutheran Church of Logan Square
2837 W. Armitage Ave., Chicago
RSVP on Facebook here (http://jewishvoiceforpeace.us3.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=44fda0b60aa5102296294048f&id=f5826f503f&e=079ae7db83)
Recent reports have confirmed the long-held suspicion that foul play was involved of the disappearance of thousands of children in Israel from 1948-1960. Story in Israel Yahom here (http://jewishvoiceforpeace.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=44fda0b60aa5102296294048f&id=2c5ba8322c&e=079ae7db83), and story covering protests in wake of the revelations in +972 Mag here (http://jewishvoiceforpeace.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=44fda0b60aa5102296294048f&id=b658b37640&e=079ae7db83).
When these children, mostly children of Yemenite immigrants to Israel, disappeared in medical facilities, their parents were told they died but were never given confirmation. The shocking truth is that, unbeknownst to their parents, these children were subjected to racially-motivated medical experiments.
Jay Stanton (Rabbinical Intern at Tzedek Chicago) and Lesley Williams (member of the Jewish Voice for Peace's Network Against Islamophobia) will help us understand the myths and facts of Israel's treatment of Yemenite Jews, what these experiments tell us about the role of racism in the establishment of Israel, and present-day efforts to combat racism and anti-Arab and anti-Muslim sentiment.
