Last weekend, our current cohort of Professional Fellows convened the first NewGround Symposium, an opportunity for NewGround community members to come together under the guidance of the Fellows to discuss the intense topics that these Fellows have grappled with over the past year: anti-Muslim and anti-Jewish hate and bias, the interconnections between them, and the many painful stories connected to Israel Palestine and the crisis in Gaza. This program was planned and executed entirely by the 2024 Fellows, and 100 community members showed up to engage in conversation.
