Contra is the perfect social dance for new dancers. The beginners’ lesson at the start is all you need to enjoy your first evening of dancing. Contra dancing is a fun, easy-to-learn style of social dance in a supportive, inter-generational, inclusive community. It’s the cool cousin to square dancing—with hot live bands. A hot band is exactly what we have for this dance with&nbsp;Petrichord&nbsp;playing amazing tunes with&nbsp;Harris Lapiroff&nbsp;calling the dance moves.
If you are new to contra dancing, come for our evening dance on any first and third Saturday evening. Knowing how to dance is not necessary since the caller prompts the moves and guides the dancers. A lesson is given at 7pm prior to the dance to learn basic terminology and some of the dance moves. It’s fine to come alone since folks switch partners between each dance.

“The Story They're Not Telling; How the media has excised the words and ideology of Islamist terror from its reporting, making it easier to villainize Israel, the one country in the Middle East who fights against it” will be the focus of a discussion led by Jennifer Kouzi, a U.S. Media Researcher and Analyst with CAMERA (the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis). Jennifer will discuss the examples of various issues that arise in media reporting on Israel and the broader Middle East. She will explain how CAMERA responds to everything, from erroneous reporting to both subtle and overt media bias.
Jennifer Kouzi monitors anti-Israel bias in the media at CAMERA. Prior to joining CAMERA, Jennifer was an attorney in the greater New York Metropolitan area for over two decades. Jennifer has a B.A. from the University of Rochester, a law degree from Temple University and an M.A. in Political Science, with concentration in Religion and Middle Eastern Politics, from Bar-Ilan University.
Founded in 1982 to monitor bias in print and network media, CAMERA has broadened its expertise to confront misinformation directed at Israel and its supporters. CAMERA corrects falsehoods and distortions in the legacy media, exposes disinformation on social media and other digital platforms, tackles antisemitism in K-12 education, supports pro-Israel students on college campuses, and challenges anti-Israel campaigns.
This event, sponsored by the B'nai Shalom Culture &amp; Learning Center (CLC), is open to the public and free of charge. To attend, you must register by October 15th through <a href="https://bswo.shulcloud.com/event/clc-camera-speaker.html." rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">bswo.shulcloud.com/event/clc-camera-speaker.html.</a>
