Or Emet, the Minnesota Congregation for Humanistic Judaism, will host Adele Brown, who will discuss the Jewish values that direct us to engage in the historic effort to make Minnesota the first state to defeat a constitutional amendment to define marriage. Speaking from the vantage point of her many years as a Jewish community organizer, Adele will ask us to consider these difficult questions: How do we stop this move to enshrine discrimination into our constitution? What Jewish values are violated by such an amendment and how do we galvanize our community to work to create a just society? How do we develop leaders willing and able to tell their stories, thus motivating and mobilizing others to do the same? The program is free and open to the public.

How can families create meaningful rituals and memorials?
