Rabbi @JonahPesner is an ally on the side of justice — see the photos from our civil disobedience together for immigrant rights. We also thank Rep. @IlhanMN for lifting up the shared Jewish & Muslim histories of fighting for safety for all communities. bendthearc.us/scotler/my_ans…

It has been my profound honor to work with Stosh @jewishaction a key ally of @TheRAC @JSJ_Roundtable in building the #Jewish #SocialJustice movement. She has been prophetic in her clear moral voice & effective in catalyzing change in the Jewish community & beyond. Lead on Stosh!
After 16 years at Bend the Arc, our CEO Stosh Cotler is beginning her leadership transition. Stosh’s time with Bend the Arc has seen our role grow tremendously in the progressive movement and the Jewish community, and we are so grateful for her leadership. bendthearc.us/leadership_tra…

Check out this awesome app from our friends at @jwaonline to lift up female voices in Jewish storytelling.
Too often, women’s voices are discounted and silenced. Let’s change that together.
We're so excited to announce the launch of #StoryAperture, JWA's new story-collecting app. jwa.org/stories

A reminder that nobody owes anyone else the "story" of their Judaism - & that it is, frequently, impolite & offensive to ask, especially when such questions are spurred simply by the color of someone else's skin. Jews come in all hues, indeed! 🙌
Heard the expression “Jews come in all hues” and I stan. It’s officially what I’ll say anytime someone asks what’s my jewish “story” cuz FYI, we JOC don’t wanna hear that 👋🏾 thank you @ReformJudaism for bringing that into my life today ✨

We’ll be there to stand in solidarity as Wayfair workers walkout. It is imperative that Wayfair cease all business with detention centers. We cannot stand idly by. #WayfairWalkout #wayfairboycott
tl;dr - Wayfair sold beds to furnish border camps; 547 employees signed a petition to ask that we cease all business with border camps; CEO said no —>employees are walking out tmrw at 1:30pm. We ask that Wayfair donate all profits made from the sale to RAICES #WayfairWalkout

There’s a flight getting in from Houston at 11:25pm in Terminal B Arrivials, Southwest, Gate B3, and we’re heading there with @jewishaction now. We don’t know if there are kids on this flight, but we’ll be there just in case. #FreedomForImmigrants #MoralEmergency – at LaGuardia Airport, Queens

Get outraged by the horrendous news of #FamilySeparation at our border. "They could hear their children screaming for them in the next room," said @RepJayapal after touring a facility. Then take action: Tell @POTUS, Congress & ICE: #FamiliesBelongTogether! bit.ly/2t2uiHN
