"Tree of Life: The Pittsburgh Synagogue Shooting" Documentary Screening & Panel Discussion In-Person
• SUPPORT FREEDOM TO WORSHIP • PREVENT HATE CRIMES & ANTISEMITISM • BUILD INTERFAITH COALITIONS |
On Saturday, October 27th, 2018, a white supremacist, further radicalized by the political climate at the time, walked into the Tree of Life Synagogue with four semi-automatic assault weapons, shouting “all Jews must die.” He murdered eleven congregants, ranging in age from 54 to 97, as they prayed. A TREE OF LIFE: THE PITTSBURGH SYNAGOGUE SHOOTING creates a deeply personal, trauma-informed portrait of the survivors, victims, and victims' family members of the Pittsburgh Synagogue attack, and brings into sharp focus the hate-based crisis that threatens our collective safety and the very social fabric of our society. Please join us on September 30 at 5:30pm for a FREE SCREENING of this film. Immediately following the screening, we will host a panel discussion of survivors and film makers (via ZOOM) to facilitate necessary conversations about keeping us all safe. We welcome all community members from different backgrounds to share in a dialogue about how we can KEEP ALL OF US SAFE. Please register so we know how many to expect. |
