Friend, join us for a powerful commemoration two years after the shooting at the Tree of Life synagogue, featuring Jewish leaders from Pittsburgh, prominent movement leaders, music, and remarks by Senator Bernie Sanders.

Two years ago, the Pittsburgh Jewish community was targeted by the deadliest act of antisemitic violence in our country’s history.

This year, we are gathering as one community, from our homes across the country, to remember those we lost — and to rise up together.

WHO IS ORGANIZING THIS?

In 2018, after the deadliest act of antisemitic violence in our country’s history, Bend the Arc: Jewish Action Pittsburgh leaders rose up to confront white nationalism — marching with thousands in the streets of Pittsburgh and penning an open letter demanding Donald Trump denounce white nationalism that was signed by over 150,000 people.

In 2020, we are rising up more powerfully than ever before, alongside partners all over the country to push white nationalism out of the halls of power.

Together, we will build a country where all of us are safe and free, no matter what we look like or where we come from — no exceptions.

Join us on Tuesday, October 27 at 8pm ET / 5pm PT.

Thank you for being part of our community,

The Bend the Arc team
