Monday Evening Justice Conversations

Offered by Jewish Gateways & Mindful Peacebuilding

Following the killing of George Floyd in May 2021, several people in the Jewish Gateways community felt the need to come together and respond.

 

What emerged was a series of gatherings which became Monday Evening Justice Conversations.

​

Through small and large group discussions, we discover our own voices and directions for personal action.

Monday Evening Justice Conversations delves into the impact of contemporary historical and political changes on racial, environmental, and electoral justice. Participants actively seek knowledge about current events, available resources to address issues, effective communication strategies to promote Jewish values such as equality, respect, fairness, and responsibility, and ways to engage in activism. The sessions feature video clips, guest speakers, and interactive small-group discussions on the topics covered.

Justice Conversations on Climate Change

 

In the face of growing challenges from floods, fires, hurricanes, extreme heat, and their devastating impacts, we are called to act. Inspired by the principle of Tikkun Olam (healing the world), this Justice Conversations session will delve into the urgent need for climate action.

​

Together, we’ll explore the profound effects of climate change, focusing on its impact on youth, who will face ongoing climate challenges, and on vulnerable communities that require extra resources to adapt and thrive. Through these discussions, we’ll learn about organizations and policymakers working on climate solutions at every level—community, state, and national.

​

Our goal is to empower participants to initiate meaningful conversations, write impactful letters, volunteer effectively, and make informed decisions about supporting the groups and policies aligned with climate resilience.

Justice Conversations meets online on the 2nd and 4th Monday of the month from 7:00-8:30 pm PT.

​

To join the Conversations or to learn more, please contact Lyn Fine or Adrianne Bank.

​​

Each session is a stand-alone experience, thoughtfully designed to be both informal and thought-provoking, with new insights each time. All are welcome at any time. No experience is necessary.
