Parashat HaShavuah—Human Rights Shabbat
This course is a study of the week's Torah portion, or parashah. This text study provides an opportunity to learn and grapple with the meaning of the weekly Torah portion, guided by Rabbi Mike Moskowitz. This week, our study of parshat Vayigash will also honor Human Rights Shabbat as we read and learn from Rabbi Moskowitz and Rabbi Kleinbaum’s essay published in the CCAR’s new Social Justice Torah commentary.

Filmmaker Hazel Katz recently completed a yearlong collaborative residency at UnionDocs and is currently pursuing an MFA at Hunter College. Mx. Je’Jae Cleopatra is an artist, filmmaker, and spiritual activist who is a member of the SAJ community. Register here »
