Join Rabbi Shawn Zevit and his guests, Cathryn Miller-Wilson, and Peter Pedemonti, as we discuss how we can respond in our own lives and communities to the current challenge to the Biblical imperative of welcoming the stranger in our midst. We will combine text study, shared wisdom from the field, small group discussion, and Q&A in this important program.

FROM AWAKENING TO ACTION is a seminar series designed for individuals who are deeply concerned about the injustices facing our world today and who seek knowledge, spiritual grounding, and organizing skills to become effective change makers. By bridging spiritual wisdom with activism, we aim to cultivate a new wave of organizers, advocates, and community leaders prepared to fight for justice in their communities. The series will feature intimate conversations with leading scholars, activists, and educators to deepen participants’ understanding of pressing social justice issues and provide practical strategies for advocacy.
