JFREJ is going to the theatre! Get your tickets to the Wednesday, April 3rd performance of THE BANALITY OF EVIL by Meta-Phys Ed. at The Brick Theater, which will be followed by a special post-show conversation about the instrumentalization of antisemitism in the 21st century with JFREJ members and Diaspora Alliance.
Based on Hannah Arendt’s controversial idea “The Banality of Evil” and her scandalous article in The New Yorker magazine, covering the trial of Nazi Adolf Eichmann in 1963. Meta-Phys Ed.’s THE BANALITY OF EVIL is a neo-noir courtroom drama about a “show-trial on trial”, and the mystery about how everyday people become war criminals.
After the show, Join JFREJers Shoshana Brown (Beyond the Pale), Jesse Freedman, and Shamirah Chandler for a conversation on instrumentalization of antisemitism and its contribution to the rise of fascism. They will use the work of Hannah Arendt to initiate conversation that draws historical parallels between 1963 and 2024. What do we need to get right to finally move towards an international solidarity promoting multi-racial, multicultural democracy?
