Social Justice Series 25-26

Social Justice in our Texts

Jewish Wisdom for Building a Better World

Poverty. Climate change. Racial justice. LGBTQ+ equality. Human rights. Tikkun Olam.

What does Judaism teach us about creating a just society?

Each month, September through June, we will take a one-hour “study break” to learn about an aspect of social justice in Jewish texts.
