Jewish Perspectives on Racism and Reparations

With Dr. Yonatan Brafman, Assistant Professor of Jewish Thought and Ethics, JTS American society is currently engaged in a long overdue reckoning about racism, including how to right past racial injustice. As American Jews, we are responsible for determining our own complicity in it, as well as inquiring about the resources in our tradition and history for grappling with it. This session briefly presented classical Jewish views about human difference as well as its racialization in modernity, before turning to the issue of reparations. Drawing on debates about payments from Germany in the aftermath of the Holocaust, we examine several Jewish resources for thinking about contemporary demands for reparations for African Americans in the United States.
