Sunday Scholar Series with Rachel Stern

Tzedek Tzedek Tirdof…the role of activism in Jewish community…. 

How do we balance the Jewish prophetic vision of justice in our country with the need to protect our own?  How do we reconcile anti-Zionism/ anti-Semitism within parts of the American Activist community (e.g. BLM) with the need to combat the racism that is baked into our society? Are we prepared to let go of our community’s default assumption that Jews are mostly white and create sacred space for Jews of color? Can we create an anti-racist Judaism? 

This class is made possible through the Gilbert and Ruth Lang Human Endowment Fund.
