The Learning Continues . . . 2023-24
For the past four years, our community has engaged in deep learning and facilitated discussion around issues of race, identity, history, structural racism and repair. While we are not holding a formal, multi-session class this year, we are still offering many ways to grapple with this subject and expand our understanding of the ways it impacts us today. As James Baldwin said, "History is not the past. It is the present. We carry our history with us. We are our history."
In addition to Shabbaton discussions and in-person events, we will be sharing resources each month that folks can explore on their own - books, articles, videos and podcasts. We will also offer an action you can take. We invite you to share resources you have come across, as well. Let's keep this conversation going!
