Anat Hoffman: "If You See Something, Say Something"
|
with Anat Hoffman, Executive Director of the Israel Religious Action Center
Thursday, October 25, 7:00 p.m. at Temple Israel; No Cost
Temple Israel is honored to welcome Anat Hoffman and
If You See Something, Say Something: An invitation to speak up when Israel strays away from its own declared vision. Israel's Declaration of Independence ensures social and political rights to all of Israel's inhabitants irrespective of religion, race, or sex; freedom of religion, conscience, language, education, and culture; and a country that will safeguard the holy places of all religions. There are instances where Israel goes off course. What should diaspora Jews do? In this presentation Hoffman will suggest an action guide for the perplexed on how we can support the Israeli movements for justice.
