On Display: Tuesday, June 4th through Saturday, July 27th
This exhibit is from the Museum of History and Holocaust Education (MHHE) at Kennesaw State University who received a grant from the Breman Foundation of Atlanta to create a traveling exhibit in support of its 2021 goals of combating antisemitism, addressing race relations, and working for social justice. During spring semester 2021, public history students in HIST 4427 worked with MHHE curator Adina Langer to produce the exhibit.
Black + Jewish: Connection, Courage, Community is a ten-panel traveling exhibit that explores the history of Black and Jewish relationships in the United States. When built on shared values and a mutual desire for civil and human rights those relationships have brought us closer to the ideal of inclusive democracy.
The exhibit is accompanied by a digital gallery guide, Black + Jewish Perspectives: A Conversational Companion, created in order to raise voices, clarify context, and complicate the conversation.
