Jackson Center To Host UCLA Sociologist Monday

The Robert H. Jackson Center will host "Can We Stop Hate?" with UCLA sociologist Aliza Luft on Monday, Nov. 16, from 6 to 7 p.m. at the center, 305 E. Fourth St., Jamestown. Luft will examine the social and cultural roots of hate, the choices people make when faced with violence and injustice, and how communities can push back without amplifying it. Drawing on the Nuremberg Trials and Justice Robert H. Jackson's pursuit of accountability after the Holocaust, the conversation will consider what history can teach about resisting hate today. The program is part of the center's "25 Years of Asking Questions" series, sponsored by Southern Chautauqua Federal Credit Union. It is free and open to the public, with registration at roberthjackson.org/events.
