Amy Spitalnick Joins AFT National Convention Conversation on Countering Hate

JCPA CEO Amy Spitalnick joined thousands of educators at this year’s American Federation of Teachers (AFT) National Convention for a powerful conversation on choosing humanity in divided times.

Alongside AFT President Randi Weingarten and Dr. Debbie Almontaser of Bridging Cultures Group, Amy discussed how we can confront antisemitism, anti-Muslim and anti-Arab hate, and polarization through honest dialogue, shared humanity, and a commitment to supporting every student and educator.

We’re grateful to AFT for welcoming Team JCPA to this year’s convention and proud of our partnership to help educators better understand and counter antisemitism, support Jewish — and all — students and educators, and strengthen public education and our democracy.
