"You Will Not Replace Us" is a documentary drama addressing the shared tribulations and historical unity between Black and Jewish Americans. Join Directors and Co-Stars Josh Greene and Luke Harris, along with Cinematographer Jack Lattin and Producer Sydney Kaster for a screening and discussion moderated by UCSC Professor Bruce Thompson.

As the film confronts the complex relationship between Black and Jewish Americans and the common struggle to fight hate, the film is titled You Will Not Replace Us, in reference to the popular white supremacist replacement theory rebuked in the film. By bringing together Black and Jewish interviewees, the film sends a clear message: that marginalized communities will not be replaced by bigotry and ignorance.

All are invited to this conversation about the rich history shared by Black and Jewish communities in the United States. Often times, due to replacement theory, these two communities have been pinned against each other and it is our hope that this documentary short serves as a jumping off point for conversations about the histories of and unity between both communities.

Light refreshments will be provided. Registration is recommended to help us plan refreshments. Register below.

This event is co-sponsored by Chadeish Yameinu, Temple Beth El, NAACP, and the Santa Cruz Jewish Film Festival.
