Alyza Lewin at JCPA Conference

On February 11, LDB President Alyza D. Lewin will speak on a panel at the Jewish Council for Public Affairs (“JCPA”) National Conference in Washington, D.C. The panel, entitled “Exploring Anti-Semitism/Anti-Zionism on Campus” will address the increase in BDS activity on college campuses and how much of this BDS activity has morphed into anti-Semitism often parading as anti-Zionism. The JCPA is the national umbrella for 125 local Jewish Community Relations Councils and 16 national agencies on issues of intergroup relations. Backed by an unparalleled capacity to mobilize grassroots Jewish activism, they convene the organized Jewish community on key issues of the day focusing on promoting a pluralistic and just democracy, global human rights, and Israel’s quest for peace. In addition to Lewin’s position at LDB, she is also a partner at Lewin & Lewin LLP, where she specializes in litigation and government relations. She is the former President of the American Association of Jewish Lawyers and Jurists (AAJLJ) and has served on the boards of the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington and the Women’s Bar Association of the District of Columbia.
