​CyberWell: Holocaust Education in the Digital Era (Session 3)

May 18 @ 2:00 pm

CyberWell: Holocaust Education in the Digital Era 

Online Speaker Series | April 27, May 4, & May 18, 2:00 p.m.
This program is made possible due to the generosity of the Schoenbaum Family Foundation. 

​Join The FHM, CyberWell, and The Henry Jackson Society for a powerful three-part speaker series that will empower you to recognize online antisemitism and misinformation while learning how to manage all that digital information.

Why it matters: Social media isn’t just for connection and entertainment; it’s where many get their news. But with that comes exposure to hate, harassment, and dis/misinformation.

This series is open to community members of all ages and backgrounds. Because understanding online hate is the first step in stopping it.

Don’t miss this powerful conversation—join us.

Free Virtual Program | REGISTRATION NECESSARY
Please note: Each session requires separate registration. If you would like to attend all sessions, be sure to register for each session individually.
