Social Action/Social Justice & JALSA: Jew-pardy Sunday, April 14, 3 pm Judaism & Social Action Trivia (“Jew-pardy”): Do you like Jeopardy and Jewish-themed prizes? This one-of-a-kind program focuses on the storied history of Jewish advocacy in the United States and connects that history with contemporary social issues and actions.
We will also be writing postcards that day as explained below: Location Shield Act: Every day, companies buy and sell detailed location data from apps on our cellphones, revealing where we live, work, seek health care, and more. Anyone can buy this data – anti-abortion extremists, domestic abusers, foreign governments, employers – and use it to harm us. To protect our privacy, safety, and access to essential health care, Massachusetts needs to ban this practice now. Join JALSA and a coalition of organizations from across the state to urge your state lawmakers to prioritize the passage of the Location Shield Act.
Join us for a fun filled and informative afternoon of laughter, learning, leisurely writing cards, and light refreshments.
“Don’t Passover the VOTE!” Join us on Sunday, April 28, 1 pm for the “Every Voice, Every Vote” postcard writing campaign. The program is nonpartisan and will target important states outside of Massachusetts. Please register here Event will be held at Temple Beth David, 1060 Randolph St, Canton
