While Montgomery County’s new suburbs were booming and the real estate industry was busy creating new subdivisions, Jewish homeowners were often purposefully excluded from the new developments. In the Downcounty region, nearly 25% of the racially restrictive covenants specifically targeted the Jewish community. Rebeccah Ballo will explore how Montgomery County enshrined antisemitism, and highlight the advocates who helped make change happen. This event is sponsored by the ST Jewish Culture Chavurah & SEA Change. No fee for your registration is required, though your donations do help fund future events. Regardless, registration is requested so we have enough space for everyone.
