Equity in Elul-the whole month of Elul

The Community Relations Committee (CRC) of the Jewish Federation is excited to share that we are setting up an entire month of short readings, podcasts, and videos for you to use to either begin or further your journey to be an informed and potentially active ally of the Black community.

With the murder of George Floyd by a police officer, we, as a nation, seemed to wake up to some of the realities that the Black community has struggled with for decades (centuries, actually). We at the CRC believe it is time for more of us to engage with and enlighten ourselves about the daily inequities that American Blacks face and struggle with. During Elul, each day there will be a new item for you to explore; and every Sunday we will have a Zoom discussion for all who wish to discuss, question, and further discuss the issues.

The entire month of activities, as well as the zoom links can be found here.

Or you may chose to go week by week. The same zoom link will be used for each Sunday session.
