From Keshet:
This year, more than 1,100 Jewish clergy have signed a public letter affirming their commitment to the dignity and rights of transgender and LGBTQ+ people. Now, four of those signatories are coming together to talk about what comes next.
Whether you’re a clergy member, lay leader, or community member looking to turn commitment into action, this conversation will offer grounding, strategy, and inspiration for the work ahead.

The Pagan GroveWhen “Streamlining” Means Erasing: Pagans in Uniform Deserve Better
The Department of Defense says it is streamlining religious-affiliation codes, but for Pagan, Wiccan, Druid, Heathen, Humanist, Atheist, and other minority-belief service members, that “streamlining” looks a lot like disappearance. Religious liberty is not measured by how comfortably the majority is served. It is measured by whether minority faiths can be named, counted, and respected.
From NCJW: Powered by trained volunteers and a strong peer-support model, OARS helps people access abortion care, transportation, funding, housing, and local resources.

It's not just about abortion, it's about having christian beliefs shoved down everyone's throats, whether they're christian or not, whether they have *any* spiritual path or not.
It's unconstitutional to force the christian cult's beliefs onto non-christians. And it won't stop here. Abortion is just the wedge. Once they have bowled over everyone else's right to freedom of religious practice, they'll start imposing more and more christian legalism and right wing fundamentalism on non-christians.
From NCJW - Record a short voice memo on your thoughts for the next generation, and help us capture collective wisdom from across our movement.

"The separation of church and state should be of deep concern to every Jewish American and any other religious minority. In honor of Shavuot – and any other religious observance – we must continue to fight for freedom of religion and separation of church and state, and elect those who will defend both as we celebrate America’s 250th year."
Shabbat Shalom,
Halie Soifer
CEO, Jewish Democratic Council of America

RedwoodSecAnti-Muslim rhetoric and white supremacy are poisoning many in this country, including young people who committed this heinous act of terrorism. Muslims, like all individuals, deserve to practice their faith without the constant harassment, targeting, and terrorism they endure in this nation. It’s crucial to acknowledge that anti-Muslim rhetoric has persisted and intensified since 9/11. This hate is perpetuated by parents, the media, and individuals who subscribe to conservative politics, and it’s truly disgusting. Anti-Muslim rhetoric is also growing in Europe especially in France, United Kingdom, Netherlands, Switzerland and Germany. Politicians have weaponized Islamophobia to blame Muslims for domestic problems. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/san-diego-islamic-center-shooting-attackers-hate-investigation/ #uspol #islam #sandiego #freedomofreligion #freespeech #worship #terrorism
Teen attackers in San Diego Islamic Center shooting were wallowing in hate, investigators say
