The Jewish National Fund is hosting a special event on Nov. 15 at 7 p.m. with guest speaker Chloe Valdary, director of Partnerships and Shillman Fellow at Jerusalem University.

Valdary is a Christian. She is black, and she is a "rising star of pro-Israel campus activism," according to The Times of Israel. As the spokesperson for the Israel education program at Jerusalem U, her support for Israel not only cuts against arguments of Students for Justice in Palestine, but also against much black civil rights rhetoric.

She previously served as a Tikvah Fellow under Bret Stephens at The Wall Street Journal.

The event will be held at the Winter Park community Center, located at 721 W. New England Ave., Winter Park. Tickets are $18 by Nov. 13; $25 at the door.

RSVP by Nov. 13 at jnf.org/orlandowfi.
