Senator Sarah Henderson is the Shadow Minister for Education and has said that the Albanese government should have had the moral courage to back the Coalition’s judicial inquiry into campus antisemitism.

University vice-chancellors and key Jewish groups appeared at the recent senate inquiry into Senator Henderson’s private senator’s bill to establish a judicial inquiry into antisemitism at Australian universities. Here is the report that was produced whereby the Labor government decided not to proceed with an inquiry along the lines that has been advocated by Senator Henderson.

Social activist and storyteller, writer and community leader, Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie is the co-founding spiritual leader of the Lab/Shul community in NYC and creator of the ritual theater company Storahtelling, Inc.

Amichai received his rabbinical ordination from the Jewish Theological Seminary of America in 2016, the 39th generation of rabbis in his family — the first one to be openly queer. (0:36-30:38)

Rabbi Amichai is the subject of Sabbath Queen, a documentary film directed by Sandi DuBowski, that was 21 years in the making. (30:44-57:16)
