"An upcoming #educational event in #Manhattan aims to grapple with the foundations of #Jewish #history, following renewed interest after the #Hamas-led terrorist attacks on #Oct7, 2023.

The daylong s#ymposium, titled “The Past, Present and Future of #JewishHistory” and hosted by the Center for Jewish History in #NewYorkCity on Nov. 2, will gather 20 leading #historians to examine some of the field’s most pressing questions.

Our nonprofit group's award winning, prosocial, non-violent video games were removed by #Google.

🤥 They claimed that we had misled them by classifying them as #educational. Google purported to know more about our work than we do.

🎮 Our free games about #consent and #healthyrelationships were unilaterally removed from Google Play, making it much tougher for us to reach and help young people.

🧡 The ubiquity of smartphones make game marketplaces a necessary channel for us to reach #adolescents directly.

The board is also concerned that the budget that Secretary of #State#MarcoRubio is requesting from #Congress for the next fiscal
year #cuts spending for the Bureau of #Educational & #Cultural Affairs, which includes the #Fulbright program, to $50 million from $691 million this fiscal year. [Holy crap!!! That’s insane]
