Join Hillel for a special non-denominational Shabbat service celebrating the the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. As we pray together we reaffirm our commitment to his vision of social and racial justice rooted in a spiritual tradition. Free and open to the public.
Guest Lecturer, Rabbi Saul Berman, will be sharing his motivations to join civil disobedience and march in Selma in 1965. Join the conversation prior to our Interfaith dinner. Free and open to the public.
The outcasts. The misfits. The strange ones who cannot or will not make their home in systems of normalized evil. The queer ones who live and love differently. The ones who speak unwelcome truths. These are the ones who teach us to live in new ways and how to better love ourselves and each other. Their witness invites us to see our own Strangeness as a source of power, truth, and possibility for building a more just world together.
