Dear Friend,
As we gather together around the Seder table for Passover, we are reminded that the journey from slavery to freedom is not ancient history.
As part of our story of resistance, this Passover we have a unique opportunity to take action. We are proud to join the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism and a growing coalition across the country to raise awareness and empower everyone to fight back against the frightening trends of hatred toward Jews.
Here are a few actions you can take to #StandUpToJewishHate and join this national movement:
-
• Post and share #? on social media, using the blue square emoji on your device, as a simple but powerful unifying symbol of solidarity
-
• Follow @StandUpToJewishHate on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok to keep up-to-date with ? and learn more about antisemitism
-
•
for more resources and ways you can get involved locally
Let's make this Passover one where we stand up!
Chag kasher v’sameach – Happy Passover,
Rabbi Marc Baker
