Leonard Zeskind Celebration of Life

When: November 9, 2025, 2:00 pm.

Where: Congregation Beth Torah. 6100 West 127th Street. Overland Park, KS 66209.

Join with friends, family, and community in celebrating the life of Leonard Zeskind, who passed away in April. His motto was always "fighting fascism can be fun!"

At the same time, the powerful legacy of Zeskind’s work was captured in moving obituaries in the New York Times, Washington Post, his hometown public radio station, KCUR, and in remembrances by many who worked closely with him over the years.

We hope you'll join us for a special day to celebrate Leonard Zeskind's life and work, share your stories of Leonard, and continue his legacy.

(Note: there is also an IREHR conference, Time to Mobilize: Fight White Nationalism and Protect Democracy, on November 8. The conference requires separate registration. You can register here for the conference.)
