Counting Inconsistencies: Who Counts What We Ask and Why It Matters
Join us for the release of the 2019 demographic meta-study of Jews of Color, developed for the Jews of Color Field Building Initiative* in partnership with a Stanford University Graduate School of Education team led by Ari Y. Kelman, Jim Joseph Professor of Education and Jewish Studies.
The Initiative set-out to answer two simple questions: 1) how many Jews of Color are there in the United States, and 2) how many Jews of Color will there be in 2025, 2030, 2040, 2050? We have answers, and also a story to tell about who has been counted in the past.
Join Ilana Kaufman, Director of the Jews of Color Field Building Initiative for a conversation about data, demographics, the power of well-considered questions, and the meaning of census taking for the U.S. Jewish community.
