An Evening of Workers’ Rights, Community, and Interfaith Dialogue
Come together for an Interfaith Text Study with DC Jobs with Justice, Jews United for Justice, and the Washington DC JCC. The evening will bring together leaders of the Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist and Hindu faiths to discuss the topic of workers' rights. In particular, the texts and discussion will focus on the rights and challenges of workers in care-giving facilities such as nursing homes, assisted living, and group homes. Hear what the panelists have to say and then join your neighbors in a thought-provoking discussion on the topic.
The event is free and open to the community, and we hope participants of all faiths will join us in learning and discussion on what each tradition says about social justice, as well as how we can further it in our local community this summer.
The Interfaith Text Study is a prelude to Labor on the Bimah - and we hope to see you there!
