We are going to provide educational and engaging tabling, that primarily focuses on Israel, the 3000+ year history of our indigenous ties to the land as Jewish people, and the nuance within. We will discuss Israeli technologies, the different people that live there, and provide people with Israeli food! Our Israeli Fellow will tell her story as well, and we will teach people how to Israeli dance. We will also showcase beautiful Israeli art. We are going to have a table dedicated to the hostages..
We would like to educate those that do not know that much about Israel, and allow them to see why we love it so deeply. We also want to show Jewish and Non-Jewish Zionist students on campus that we are here to support them, as well as to uplift them in their support of Israel. The best way to counteract negative press about Israel is to showcase why it is such an incredible country. We also would love to further educate those that know a lot, as anything they can learn only furthers their learning when it comes to their connection to the land.
