The 1947 film "Gentleman's Agreement" was an expose of antisemitism that had a major impact at the time. We'll look at the making of the movie (based on Laura Z. Hobson's novel) and how it works (or doesn't) seven decades later. You should try to see the film prior to the session whether for the first time or to refresh your memory of it.
