We often hear about immigrants’ rights, gun violence prevention, gender rights and housing on the national level. But what about the local level? What Massachusetts laws address these issues?
Join JALSA (Jewish Alliance for Law and Social Action) for an Open Circle Social Action class in which we’ll look at local Massachusetts legislation through a Jewish lens. Led by JALSA’s Director of Communications Rachael Dubinsky and Program & Outreach Coordinator David Albright, this class will help us to see what Jewish tradition offers in understanding local legislation and inspire us to take Jewishly-inspired action to make our voices heard in the legislative process.
When: Thursdays from 7-9 p.m., May 30 to June 27, as well as Friday, June 28, for a Shabbat experience
Where: Cambridge
Instructors: Rachael Dubinsky and David Albright
This class is part of Open Circle Social Action, a Hebrew College program supported by CJP, which brings people together learn about the importance of the practice of tikkun olam (repair the world), tzedek (justice) and tzedakah (charity) in Jewish tradition; work with community organizers in local advocacy organizations; and make a difference through a meaningful social action activity on a specific theme.
