Mary Washington’s Khatib Program is dedicated to countering religious intolerance by promoting scholarly engagement with religious traditions. Inspired by the personal experiences of Reza Khatib and his late wife, Georgianna, it reinforces their commitment to fostering interreligious dialogue.

During this talk, Avinoam Patt, professor of Holocaust studies at New York University who holds a joint Ph.D. in modern European history and Hebrew and Judaic studies, will explore the history of antisemitism in America and how Jewish communities have navigated discrimination and prejudice from the colonial period until today.
