SUMMARY:A Conversation about Israeli-Palestinian Peace Prospects
DESCRIPTION:A conversation about Israeli-Palestinian peace prospects\, with Maen Rashid Areikat\, Ambassador to the Palestinian Delegation to the United States\, and Jeremy Ben-Ami\, Founder & President of J Street. \nThe Israeli-Palestinian conflict is one of the most complex and polarizing conflicts in modern history.  Nearly seventy years after the foundation of Israel and fifty years since the beginning of the occupation of Gaza and the West Bank territories\, the struggle between Israelis and Palestinians seems to be as far as ever from a resolution.  How can Israeli and Palestinian leaders move toward a sustainable peace?  Can the US and the international community help to bridge gaps and bring the two sides together? \nJoin us for a conversation with these very special dignitaries\, about the prospects for achieving peace and why it matters so much to the US and the world. \nMaen Rashid Areikat is originally from Jericho.  He was appointed Ambassador to the Palestinian Delegation to the United States by President Mahmoud Abbas.  He has overseen the Negotiations Affairs Department of the PLO in Ramallah\, providing legal\, policy\, communication and technical support to Palestinian negotiating teams. \nJeremy Ben-Ami’s great-grandparents were among the first settlers in Petah Tikva 130 years ago\, and his grandparents were one of the founding families of Tel Aviv.  He is the founder and President of J Street\, a pro-Israel\, pro-peace American nonprofit that seeks a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. \nModerator Luther Jackson is an expert in Silicon Valley labor market research and analysis\, and is well known as a leader\, facilitator and communicator. \nCo-sponsored by J Street\, Community Relations Council of the Jewish Federation of Silicon Valley\, and First Unitarian Church of San Jose. \nMore information and registration.

SUMMARY:What Is at Stake for Environmental Justice in 2016?
DESCRIPTION:What Is at Stake for Environmental Justice in 2016? The Elusive Role of Race and Equity in Environmental Regulation \nPanel: Tseming Yang\, Christopher Bacon \nAlmost 35 years have passed since protests in Warren County\, NC against the siting of a toxic waste disposal facility in a predominantly African-American community trained nationwide attention on the emerging environmental justice movement. \nEven as the term of the country’s first African -American President comes to an end\, however\, the goal of environmental justice remains unfulfilled.  The talk will review the history of the movement\, how it has changed perspectives on the role of race and equity in environmentalism and regulatory policy\, and some of the remaining key challenges that face the next Administration. \n

SUMMARY:Birds of Longing: An Interfaith Panel
DESCRIPTION:Taking inspiration from exhibiting artist Laurie Wohl’s Birds of Longing: Exile and Memory\, panel participants will speak to the interweaving of words\, beliefs\, and philosophies amongst the Abrahamic religions. Participants include: Wohl\, Maha Elgenaidi from the Islamic Networks Group\, Rev. Dr. D. Andrew Kille editor of Reading Between The Lines\, and Rabbi Me’irah Susan Iliinsky from VITAS Healthcare. \nBirds of Longing interweaves Muslim\, Jewish\, and Christian poetry and spiritual texts from the period of convivencia (co-existence) in Spain (8th-15th centuries)\, and from modern Middle Eastern poets\, particularly Palestinian and Israeli. \nEmphasis is on the common themes and striking parallels between Arabic and Hebrew texts\, similarly rich in their poetry of spiritual love\, an extensive poetry of exile\, and poetry of nostalgia for Andalusia. \nThe project contains Wohl’s weavings\, as well as an audio component which consists of readings in English\, Arabic\, and Hebrew that are interwoven to create a soundscape illustrating the commonality of the Middle Eastern languages. \nAll 2015-2016 art exhibits are made possible\, in part\, by a generous gift from Cookie Addison & Family.\nAll APJCC programming for Cultural Arts is made possible\, in part\, by generous gifts from Sylvia & Leonard Metz\, Doris & Rick Davis\, and Bill Lister.\nThe APJCC is proud to be a part of the Initiative on Jewish Peoplehood\,\nco-funded by the Koret Foundation and the Taube Foundation for Jewish Life & Culture.

SUMMARY:"Being Mortal" Film & End-of-Life Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:We’ll view “Being Mortal\,” a PBS Frontline film\, featuring Dr. Atul Gawande\, physician and writer\, as he presents several families grappling with serious illness and end-of-life choices.  Like Dr. Gawande’s best-selling book\, on which the film is based\, “Being Mortal” explores the relationships between doctors and patients nearing the end of life\, and shows how many doctors\, including Dr. Gawande himself\, struggle to talk honestly and openly. \nAfterwards\, our panelists will discuss topics raised by the film and address ways in which different cultures manage end-of-life care. \nOur facilitator will be 2014 Jefferson-Award Winner\, Patrick Arbore\, EdD\, Founder of The Friendship Line and Director of the Center for Elderly Suicide Prevention and Grief Related Services (CESP)—both programs at Institute on Aging.  Dr. Arbore conducts workshops and and presents lectures\, locally and nationally\, on aging-related subjects.
