We know better now
In Jewish tradition, we remember the yortseit, the anniversary of the death of loved ones. We remember what we loved and valued about them, and we think of how to continue those qualities in our own lives.
June 24 is the yortseit of Roe v Wade, the right of bodily autonomy and the right of doctors to do their jobs. We never thought this day could come, but it did, and it presaged even more attacks on bodily autonomy as evidenced in anti-gay and anti-trans laws in many states.
We were complacent – but we know better now. If you are looking for a way to help, please consider donating the National Council of Jewish Women’s Jewish Fund for Abortion Access at https://www.ncjw.org/act/action/donate-to-abortion-access/
Final JCS of the 23/24 School Year
What a beautiful (and delicious) way to end this Jewish Culture School year! We made Italian Date Cake and Coconut Rocks, and learned how to transform our hands into little faces that can sing Shalom Chaverim! Thank you for a wonderful year–updates coming soon about the fun in store for next year.

to criticize the government
to make decision about our own bodies
