The JCRC facilitates three African-American/Jewish Dialogue (AA/J) groups: 

African American/Jewish Dialogue Group
The AA/J Dialogue Initiative enables members to learn more about one another as individuals and communities through dialogue and pertinent programming. Recent activities have included a screening of “The Last Survivor,” which profiles a Holocaust survivor and survivors of more recent genocides in Rwanda, the Congo and Sudan, and a meeting with Linda Lockhart, Analyst, Public Insight Network for the St. Louis Beacon. Ms. Lockhart spoke with the group about the “Race, Frankly” series that ran in the Beacon last year.

African American/Jewish Task Force
Co-sponsored with the Urban League, the AA/J Task Force was formed to discuss and act upon issues of concern to both communities.

Young Adult African-American/Jewish Dialogue Group
JCRC’s young adult African –American/ Jewish dialogue group provides a space for young adult African Americans and Jews to build a better understanding of each other as well as issues important to each community. Participants were carefully chosen that are leaders in the community and able to bring the experiences, understanding and relationships formed in this program to others.
