OctOctober 27 , 2020Contact Tracing, Civil Liberties and Public Health with Rabbi Shahar
Tuesday, Oct 27th 12:00p to 1:00p
From T’ruah's webinar series “Jewish Law and Ethics: a hackathon for the age of COVID-19”: Contact tracing is an essential tool for fighting the spread of COVID-19, but many recent tech-based suggestions about how to implement this public-health strategy broadly and quickly raise serious privacy concerns. How should Jews approach these concerns about contact tracing? How do we maintain values of liberty, privacy and public safety in extraordinary circumstances? -

OctOctober 28 , 2020Jewishness, Whiteness, and Race in America
Wednesday, Oct 28th 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. -
