About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours 30 minutes

In conjunction with our presenting partner ADL Connecticut, join us for a screening of the documentary film October 8, followed by a talkback with the production team and a Q&A.

October 8 offers a look at the explosion of antisemitism on college campuses, social media, and in the streets of America beginning the day after the October 7 attack on Israel by Hamas.

Through meticulous investigation, the film also uncovers how, over decades, Hamas created sophisticated networks in America to permeate U.S. institutions and examines the tsunami of online antisemitism, propaganda, and disinformation unleashed by Iran, China, and Russia — with the sole purpose of dividing American society.

Please note: This film contains mature themes and may not be suitable for younger audiences.
