What Our “End Racism” Sign Represents
At Bolton Street Synagogue, our End Racism sign stands as a public declaration of our Jewish values and moral commitments. It reflects our belief that every person is created b’tzelem Elohim — in the image of God — and therefore deserves dignity, safety, and belonging.
This sign is more than a statement; it is a promise to act. It reminds us that confronting racism, bias, and inequality is sacred work — part of our mission to build a more just and compassionate community. Guided by the principles of equity and inclusion, we strive to make Bolton Street Synagogue not only a house of worship, but also a home for reflection, dialogue, and social action.
Through this ongoing commitment, we affirm that ending racism begins with awareness, deep listening, and partnership. Our sign — like our programs and initiatives — invites every member and neighbor to join us in the work of repair (tikkun olam) and in living our shared Jewish and human values out loud.
