Intertwining jazz genealogy\, biography\, performance footage\, and the history of lynching\, director Joel Katz fashions a fascinating discovery of the lost story behind a true American classic. Following the screening we will have a conversation led by David Greenberg. \nRegistration Below: \n\n\n \n \n Gems at the J | Special MLK Day Program: Monday Matinee - Strange Fruit Documentary\n You may purchase up to 5 tickets in one transaction. \n \n Name(Required)\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Phone(Required)Email(Required)\n \n How did you hear about this event?(Required)How did you hear about this event?Word of mouthGems newsletterJCC newsletterInternet searchSynagogueOtherHow did you hear about this event - other?(Required)Liability Waiver(Required) I agree to the Liability WaiverBy checking this box\, I release\, hold harmless\, and indemnify the Kaiserman JCC and the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia\, as well as it’s agents and employees\, from and against any liability on their part\, of any kind whatsoever\, which may arise in any manner\, from use of the JCC’s facilities.How many tickets are you purchasing?(Required)How many tickets are you purchasing?1 Ticket ($10) - Gems at the J MLK Day Memoirs2 Tickets - Gems at the J MLK Day Memoirs3 Tickets - Gems at the J MLK Day Memoirs4 Tickets - Gems at the J MLK Day Memoirs5 Tickets - Gems at the J MLK Day MemoirsTickets: $10 EachName (Guest 2)(Required)\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Name (Guest 3)(Required)\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Name (Guest 4)(Required)\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Name (Guest 5)(Required)\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Total\n \n Credit Card(Required)Card Details\n \n Cardholder Name\n \n Billing Address(Required) \n \n \n \n Street Address\n \n \n Address Line 2\n \n \n City\n \n \n State / Province / Region\n \n \n ZIP / Postal Code\n \n CountryAfghanistanAlbaniaAlgeriaAmerican SamoaAndorraAngolaAnguillaAntarcticaAntigua and BarbudaArgentinaArmeniaArubaAustraliaAustriaAzerbaijanBahamasBahrainBangladeshBarbadosBelarusBelgiumBelizeBeninBermudaBhutanBoliviaBonaire\, Sint Eustatius and SabaBosnia and HerzegovinaBotswanaBouvet IslandBrazilBritish Indian Ocean TerritoryBrunei DarussalamBulgariaBurkina FasoBurundiCabo VerdeCambodiaCameroonCanadaCayman IslandsCentral African RepublicChadChileChinaChristmas IslandCocos IslandsColombiaComorosCongoCongo\, Democratic Republic of theCook IslandsCosta RicaCroatiaCubaCuraçaoCyprusCzechiaCôte d'IvoireDenmarkDjiboutiDominicaDominican RepublicEcuadorEgyptEl SalvadorEquatorial GuineaEritreaEstoniaEswatiniEthiopiaFalkland IslandsFaroe IslandsFijiFinlandFranceFrench GuianaFrench PolynesiaFrench Southern TerritoriesGabonGambiaGeorgiaGermanyGhanaGibraltarGreeceGreenlandGrenadaGuadeloupeGuamGuatemalaGuernseyGuineaGuinea-BissauGuyanaHaitiHeard Island and McDonald IslandsHoly SeeHondurasHong KongHungaryIcelandIndiaIndonesiaIranIraqIrelandIsle of ManIsraelItalyJamaicaJapanJerseyJordanKazakhstanKenyaKiribatiKorea\, Democratic People's Republic ofKorea\, Republic ofKuwaitKyrgyzstanLao People's Democratic RepublicLatviaLebanonLesothoLiberiaLibyaLiechtensteinLithuaniaLuxembourgMacaoMadagascarMalawiMalaysiaMaldivesMaliMaltaMarshall IslandsMartiniqueMauritaniaMauritiusMayotteMexicoMicronesiaMoldovaMonacoMongoliaMontenegroMontserratMoroccoMozambiqueMyanmarNamibiaNauruNepalNetherlandsNew CaledoniaNew ZealandNicaraguaNigerNigeriaNiueNorfolk IslandNorth MacedoniaNorthern Mariana IslandsNorwayOmanPakistanPalauPalestine\, State ofPanamaPapua New GuineaParaguayPeruPhilippinesPitcairnPolandPortugalPuerto RicoQatarRomaniaRussian FederationRwandaRéunionSaint BarthélemySaint Helena\, Ascension and Tristan da CunhaSaint Kitts and NevisSaint LuciaSaint MartinSaint Pierre and MiquelonSaint Vincent and the GrenadinesSamoaSan MarinoSao Tome and PrincipeSaudi ArabiaSenegalSerbiaSeychellesSierra LeoneSingaporeSint MaartenSlovakiaSloveniaSolomon IslandsSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth Georgia and the South Sandwich IslandsSouth SudanSpainSri LankaSudanSurinameSvalbard and Jan MayenSwedenSwitzerlandSyria Arab RepublicTaiwanTajikistanTanzania\, the United Republic ofThailandTimor-LesteTogoTokelauTongaTrinidad and TobagoTunisiaTurkmenistanTurks and Caicos IslandsTuvaluTürkiyeUS Minor Outlying IslandsUgandaUkraineUnited Arab EmiratesUnited KingdomUnited StatesUruguayUzbekistanVanuatuVenezuelaViet NamVirgin Islands\, BritishVirgin Islands\, U.S.Wallis and FutunaWestern SaharaYemenZambiaZimbabweÅland Islands\n Country\n \n \n Billing Email(Required)\n \n Total URL:https://www.phillyjcc.com/event/gems-at-the-j-special-mlk-day-program-monday-matinee-strange-fruit-documentary/ LOCATION:Kaiserman JCC\, 45 Haverford Rd\, Wynnewood\, PA\, 19096\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.phillyjcc.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/1bc5f2b7-351a-4903-96b4-5eeeed3c1e7b.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Gems":MAILTO:gems@phillyjcc.com END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
