SUMMARY:Civil Rights Journey to the South
DESCRIPTION:Join Rabbi Harris and members of Congregation Beth El for a trip exploring the Jewish history of the Civil Rights movement this winter\, December 13-15. The Civil Rights journey empowers and inspires participants to return home and get involved\, as they realize they have the power to make a difference. Participants will meet primary sources\, such as a reverend who collaborated with Dr. King and individuals who took part in the march from Selma to Montgomery. We will also explore Jewish involvement in the Movement and how our Passover story resonates deeply with the Civil Rights narrative. By visiting the Equal Justice Initiative\, we help participants understand that Civil Rights is not just an issue that affected certain people in the 1950s and 60s\, but continues to be a pressing concern today\, championed by various groups who feel unheard in society. \nThe cost of the trip is $1\,600 per person and includes hotel accomodations and local transportation Sunday to Tuesday; all meals from Sunday lunch to Tuesday lunch (with the exception of Monday dinner); and all admission and programming costs. Airfare is not included. Click here to view the trip itinerary. For those interested in spending Shabbat in Atlanta\, separate arrangements can be made and coordinated with Rabbi Harris.
