From our UUJA Board
As the Israel - Hamas war continues and we mourn the deaths of Israeli hostages and Palestinians, we are saddened by our participants' lived experiences and pain as Jewish UUs.
Historically, UUJA has had a role in supporting those grappling with their Jewish identity and their relationship with Israel. This has not and will not involve taking a position as a Board on UUA resolutions and other statements.
We recognize that the Jewish response is to provide a space for people to grapple with current events and name when they see and hear oppressive language. Our role is to hold vigils and other dialogues that are safe and thoughtfully facilitated.
In keeping with our history of holding a place for those feeling marginalized within the UUA, UUJA will provide a program on Antisemitism in early 2025. We encourage you to join us for our programs, services and discussions on important topics and to take advantage of pastoral sessions UUJA provides to support you during this challenging time.

A program on Antisemitism could be a positive action. But I hope this program will not conflate Antisemitism with Zionism. The two are not the same. If part of the program would include distinguishing between Antisemitism and Zionism, that would be a good service to UU Jews. Also, UU Jews differ from Zionists to Anti-Zionists. I hope those creating this program will keep this type of diversity in mind.
