Kehilah: Bridging Faiths and Rights: A Civil Rights Exploration

Thursday, December 7, 2023    
8:00 pm EST - 9:30 pm EST

[This Program is scheduled on Eastern Time Zone]

“Racism is man’s gravest threat to man – the maximum of hatred for a minimum of reason.”
– Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel

Please join us on December 7th, as we explore the history of the Civil Rights movement, past and present. It was an organized effort by Black Americans to end racial discrimination and gain equal rights under the law. Many people of conscience, from all races and faiths, were a part of this movement, including the Jewish community.

This is the first program in a series that will examine in depth the Civil Rights movement. Each program is a standalone program which can be attended individually or as part of the series. At the end of the series Women’s League will sponsor the trip Voices of Change: A WLCJ Civil Rights Pilgrimage. ALL WLCJ members are invited to attend these programs, regardless of whether they intend to participate in the trip.
