With Anita Friday
Jewish values compel us to stand up to hate and discrimination in all its forms. Local attorney, activist, and educator Anita Friday races the historical timeline of systemic racism and shares insights into how and why it persists in society today. Through discussion and exercises, she helps us ponder questions such as, How Did We Get Here? Is it Over? What can be Done? Participants must be able to commit to attending all three dates. Class limited to 15 participants. Please contact Helene at hbludman@gmail.com.
