Join Rabbi Mike Moskowitz for a thought-provoking class on allyship as a spiritual practice, based on his new book, Ancestral Allyship. This session will explore how we can be transformative allies, drawing inspiration from the weekly Torah portion and the wisdom of our ancestors. Rabbi Moskowitz emphasizes the Jewish obligation to prevent the breakdown of our shared humanity, investigating our current state of disunity (chaburah - חבורה) and the destructive consequences (churban - חרבן) that arise. Discover actionable steps toward fostering connection and unity in our communities. Don’t miss this opportunity to deepen your understanding of allyship within the Jewish tradition.
