Friend,
Building a multiracial democracy means transforming ALL our
political institutions. This requires activism at scale, urgently.
Since 2016, Jewish leaders in 14 cities — some of them brand new to
activism — have started building local Bend the Arc groups called
Moral Minyans.
This weekend, those leaders gathered in person to help shape Bend
the Arc’s 2020 plan to defeat Trump and combat white nationalism and
antisemitism.
In February we’ll be launching our 2020 campaign,
and in May (exactly 100 days from today!) over 1,000
Jews and allies will come together in Washington, DC for Pursuing
Justice 2020, our national conference.
Did you see that sessions are now
live at conference.bendthearc.us/agenda?
You can view the workshops and speakers and register to join Bend
the Arc leaders, organizers, activists, trainers, communicators,
rabbis, artists, and healers from across the country on May 3-5 in
Washington, DC.
Join us at Pursuing Justice 2020 to:
- Train on campaign strategies to fight white nationalism,
- Be in space by and for Jews of Color,
- Hear stories about how to move members of Congress,
- Study what the Torah teaches us about organizing for immigrant
rights,
- Learn about Mizrahi and Sephardi arts and activism throughout
history and today,
- Explore how white Jews and allies can show up for racial
justice,
and so much more.
In solidarity,
The Bend the Arc team
