SUMMARY:NEWISH & JEWISH: IF I AM NOT FOR MYSELF\, WHO AM I?
DESCRIPTION:Led by Cheryl Gordon\, take a deep dive into a very uncomfortable reality of Jewish life today. In these troubling times\, we Jews often step back or hide. Sometimes we’re even apologetic.  We are very comfortable defending others\, but reluctant to advocate for ourselves.  Instead of being self-conscious and apologetic\, let’s look at why and how to step up for both ourselves and future generations. Please bring your ideas and personal examples. \nDate: Tuesday\, February 17 \nTime: 12:00 pm – 1:15 pm EST \nLocation: Your home via Zoom
