ATLANTA — Georgia State University, Professor of Communication and Middle East Studies; and Transcultural Conflict and Violence Faculty Member, Dr. Mia Bloom will take part in an upcoming lecture event by Scholars Circle; a program by Chai Mitzvah. Scholars Circle offers a multifaceted teaching of worldly topics around Judaism and Israel. Each lecture provides a simple and easy to follow presentation through 1-hour live lectures with Q&A. Resource guide included for all attendees. Over 1,500 people engaged.
Bloom will lead the lecture, which explores the silence of international organizations and female-led civil society groups regarding the abuse of Israeli women by Hamas through gender-based violence. It presents evidence of sexual violence and contrasts the denial and questioning of these crimes with international responses to wartime sexual abuse in other contexts, such as the DRC, Iraq, Rwanda, and Nigeria.
