Beyond the Count: Perspectives and Lived Experiences of Jews of Color

Alumni Dalya Perez (PhD '20, MEd '15) and Gage Gorsky (PhD '19), along with doctoral candidate Tory Brundage, recently completed a groundbreaking study highlighting the experiences of Jewish people of color designed to enable the Jewish community to implement more change for racial equity and inclusion. "Beyond the Count: Perspectives and Lived Experiences of Jews of Color" captures unprecedented findings and is the largest and most comprehensive study of Jewish people of color in the United States to date. The movement fighting racism within the Jewish community is heralding the study as a watershed moment and the study has already been featured through several outlets, including the Jewish Telegraphic Agency and The Jerusalem Post.
