Blind Spot Film Screening

Join Tulane Hillel in screening Blind Spot, a film that takes an in-depth look at antisemitism on American college campuses before and after Oct 7, 2023. There will be a talkback afterward by the film's producer, Lenny Gold, Tulane Hillel Executive Director Gary Brandt, and former CEO of the Jewish Federation of Greater New Orleans, Arnie Fielkow.

A modern-day civil rights story told in the inspiring words and voices of more than two dozen students who’ve experienced and fought against this hatred on the front lines at more than a dozen schools across America, Blind Spot bears witness to their bravery in the face of extreme hostility, indifference, and efforts to silence them and erase their Jewish identity while too many school administrators fail to take action.

Joining and supporting the students in the film are more than two dozen professionals, including leading activist lawyers, elected officials from both parties, faculty, campus Chabad and Hillel directors and other Jewish community leaders, college administrators, and journalists/authors, who express their views and prescriptions for change.
