DecDecember 2 , 2020Jewishness, Whiteness, and Race in America
Wednesday, Dec 2nd 7:30p to 9:00p
With Rabbi Toba Spitzer and Dr. Jenny Sartori. In the wake of the murder of George Floyd and the uprising against police brutality, many American Jewish communities are grappling with what it means to become actively anti-racist. As Dorshei Tzedek takes on this challenge, this class offers an introductory exploration of the intersections of Jewish identity, antisemitism and anti-Black racism, and the American construct of “whiteness.” What does it mean to say that European Jews “became white” in the 20th century? How do we understand the intersections of the different traumas held in white, Black, and Jewish bodies? How do systemic racism and antisemitism operate in 21st century American society? What does an embrace of a multiracial Jewish reality look like? Join us for study, discussion, and personal reflection and exploration. -

DecDecember 6 , 2020VIM: Online Scattegories with Mel Adler and Andy Cohen
Sunday, Dec 6th 7:30p to 8:30p
Scattergories is a super-fun game that works surprisingly well online. How does it work? Players have 3 minutes to complete a category list with answers that begin with the same letter. The trick is trying to come up with answers that aren’t duplicated by others. Come with a pencil, paper, and second device (smartphone) to upload the category lists (this will let us use our computers to see each other). Sign up HERE to receive Zoom information for the session. -
