SOCIETY FOR HUMANISTIC JUDAISM / JEWS FOR A SECULAR DEMOCRACY SHABBAT

FEATURING A CONVERSATION WITH RANDI WEINGARTEN, PRES., AMERICAN FED. OF TEACHERS

Join us for a special Shabbat with the N. American Board of the Society for Humanistic Judaism (SHJ). The program will feature a presentation of the Jews for a Secular Democracy's "Constitutional Defender Award" to Randi Weingarten, President of American Federation of Teachers (AFT), national education leader, and a steadfast advocate for public education and democratic values. We will then hear from her about her experiences defending church-state separation in schools in conversation with Paul Golin, Exec. Dir. of SHJ. This award is presented to outstanding individuals who embody the JFASD mission by bringing Jewish values to defend the U.S. Constitutional right to freedom of and from religion. Past honorees have included leaders at the forefront of defending religious freedom, civil rights, and inclusive democracy.
