All Day

Day trip to Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia, a site of history and conversation, empathy and action on the morality of institutionalizing humans. A great opportunity for inter-generational dialogue. 

This will be our first trip during a year of study culminating in a journey to the Museum of Peace & Justice - the lynching museum in Alabama.

Please sign up HERE so we can organize carpooling & the private tour.  We will also be sending you some readings and discussion prompts by email.

This trip is being organized by Yael Silverberg-Urian and Noemi Giszpenc, as part of the BK Anti-Racism study and action group.
