May 17, 2026 - Booklaunch: Radical Jewish Tradition

When: May 17th, 2pm
Where: Steelworkers Hall, 25 Cecil St

Speakers: Donny Gluckstein and Janey Stone with Judy Rebick and Julia Barnett.

The Radical Jewish Tradition tells the inspiring and lesser-known story of working class Jews--together with their non-Jewish neighbours--who took on the bosses, the Czars and the fascists.

The book is recommended reading for all Jewish people scouring their histories for alternatives to Zionism. But it is meant for a more general audience, too. All readers interested in uncovering the roots of racism, understanding the way ruling classes need scapegoats to divide and rule and learning strategies for cross-cultural movements against oppression, will get something out of The Radical Jewish Tradition.

May 17, 2026 - Envisioning Return Amid Genocide

When: Sunday May 17th, 2pm

We are honored to invite you to join us in conversation with Angela Davis and Rashid Khalidi to discuss Zochrot's Vision of Return Initiative.

While the world speaks of "the day after" in Gaza, it erases the root: over 70% of Gaza's population are refugees or their descendants, living under siege and denied the right to return.

Our Return from Gaza Vision is not a slogan but a political horizon, centering return and confronting responsibility from within.
