Initiative on Equity, Inclusion and Community

Initiative on Equity, Inclusion and Community: The synagogue supports the recent national initiative, “Not Free to Desist,” which is the product of inspired thinking and action from a small group of Jews of Color and asks Jewish organizations across the country “to not sit idly by when we see racial injustice before us.”

Mission: Consistent with our synagogue’s mission, which is “to be an inclusive Jewish home for the diverse Baltimore community engaging in spirituality, learning, and social justice.” The Initiative on Equity, Inclusion and Community committee has representatives from every synagogue committee and leadership. This will ensure that every aspect of the synagogue’s work includes thinking and programming to address inclusivity and the intersectional identities for all people, including Jews of Color and People of Color in general.
