At AJC Global Forum 2025, a distinguished panel of leading American rabbis explored the challenges, opportunities, and renewed sense of unity within the American Jewish community following the October 7 attacks.

Representing the Reform, Conservative, and Orthodox movements, Rabbi Angela Buchdahl (Central Synagogue), Rabbi Joshua Davidson (Congregation Emanu-El), Rabbi Chaim Steinmetz (Kehilath Jeshurun), and Rabbi Elliot Cosgrove (Park Avenue Synagogue) shared powerful reflections on faith, resilience, and leadership in a changing world.

Moderated by Dr. Laura Shaw Frank, Director of the AJC Center for Education Advocacy and Director of the William Petschek Department of Contemporary Jewish Life, this important conversation highlighted the role of Jewish values in confronting adversity and finding hope across denominations.
