"Justice, justice, you shall pursue."
"צדק צדק תרדוף"
"Tzedek Tzedek Tirdof”
(Deuteronomy 16:18)
Our Jewish tradition demands we pursue justice. In these times, how do we actually do that? What does it mean to show up Jewishly in pursuit of justice?
This summer institute is for any Jewish youth between the ages of 13 and 19 who want to join the next generation of Jewish rabble rousers. No previous experience required.
