From Anguish to Action: Supporting the Uyghurs
Jewish Community Conference
What can we actually do about the plight of the Uyghur community? Through three high-level panels, priests and imams, political leaders and activists will share practical things we can all do in support.
- Join MPs Sir Iain Duncan Smith and Lisa Nandy to debate the issue.
- Hear firsthand testimony from Rahima Mahmut, a Uyghur activist.
- Learn from Kelley Eckels Currie, the former United States Representative at the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women.
- Listen to Bennett Freeman, the former United States Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights & Labour.
Having faced persecution, torture and abuse, it’s time for action.
This interactive conference is presented by Magen Avot Synagogue and supported by the Office of the Chief Rabbi, The Hampstead Synagogue, Muswell Hill Synagogue and the United Synagogue.
