Panelists will discuss protest movements in Indianapolis, including the movement to free Soviet Jews — the opportunities, the challenges, the goals, and the lessons. This is a Unity Project program. FREE, but pre-registration is recommended.

This program accompanies the Power of Protest: The Movement to Free Soviet Jews exhibit on display at the JCC April 1-May 15. The exhibit is on loan from the National Museum of American Jewish History. The Movement to Free Soviet Jews, one of the most successful human rights movements in history, shows that voices raised in protest can lead to remarkable achievements. The display will be in the hall between the JCC's east and west doors and in the art gallery area. The exhibit is presented in partnership with the Indiana Jewish Historical Society, the Jewish Community Center, the Jewish Community Relations Council, Jewish Family Services, and the Jewish Federation of Greater Indianapolis.
