Join Cydney Wallace, activist and co-founder of Kol Or, JCUA’s Jews of Color Caucus; Pastor Chris Harris of Bright Star Church; and Rabbi Michael Siegel, Senior Rabbi at Anshe Emet Synagogue in conversation with Forward National Editor Rob Eshman for a frank look at Black-Jewish relations in Chicago and beyond.
