On Sunday, August 13, 2023 from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM, the Holocaust Memorial & Tolerance Center of Nassau County's David Taub Reel Upstanders Film Series will present THE STRANGER.

A chilling film on a hot summer afternoon. The chase is on: a UN War Crimes hunter searching for two Nazi war criminals in a peaceful Connecticut town. Oscar and Golden Globe-nominated, THE STRANGER will be facilitated by CAC CO-Director Dylan Skolnick.

OUR NEXT CONVERSATION:

TUE, AUG 29 · 7:00 PM EDT

What does TOLERANCE mean to YOU?

RSVP HERE: https://www.meetup.com/crossing-party-lines-ny-long-island/events/295013535/

Join us as we discuss this and other questions such as:

What does “tolerance” mean to you?
What does “free speech” mean to you?
Do you think Americans today are less free to talk about things publicly?
Have you or someone you know experienced any retaliation for sharing your/their ideas publicly? Conversely, have you reacted against another because of something they said?
Some say we should tolerate everything except intolerance and that tolerating intolerance is socially harmful. Do you agree or disagree?
What might be considered “hate speech” in many other countries is constitutionally protected in America. What are the effects, good or bad?
Do you believe “cancel culture” and “social silencing” exists? On the left? On the right? On both sides?
Should Social Media platforms limit speech?

HOPE IS AN ACT OF DEFIANCE. DEFY WITH US. 

Crossing Party Lines (CPL) wants to hear your story of how you (or someone you know) chose / choose hope in your own life. Maybe you made a friend out of a bully, maybe your dad chose to be accountable when there was an easy way out for him to play the blame-game, maybe your mother spoke up for a neighbor who looked different than everyone else in the community, or maybe your friend reached out to you when things were too fraught between you. 

et's celebrate the unsung choices and acts of hope in everyday life made by ordinary people.

Interested? Email us at [email protected] with the subject “CHOOSE HOPE” and we will send you recording instructions and/or help you craft your story. .

Look inside you and around you for goodness. Choose Hope. Share Hope. Be Hope.
