Join the Chicago Jewish Alliance for a screening of A Special Russian Truth, a short documentary about how Soviet propaganda during the Cold War helped shape some of today's anti-Israel and anti-Zionist narratives. Through historical analysis and interviews with historians, academics, and other experts, the film explores the origins of common rhetoric and the role propaganda played in spreading antisemitic ideas.
Following the screening, there will be a live Q&A panel discussion where attendees can ask questions and take part in an open conversation about the film and its themes.
