Why is Abortion Access a Jewish Value?
Wednesday, June 22, 2022 • 23 Sivan 5782
7:30 PM - 9:00 PMBeit Am and ZoomFor decades the Christian right has dominated the discussion about abortion access and reproductive access but theirs is not the only religious perspective. As Jews we also have centuries of discussion, teaching and debate about bodily autonomy and reproductive freedom.
Join us for a night of study and practice. With Rabbi Dr. Jenny Solomon as our guide and teacher, we will take a deep dive into what our sages and religious leaders have to say. Come away feeling empowered to lend a Jewish voice to the debate.
Sponsored by Carolina Jews for Justice and the Progressive Kehillah at Beth Meyer Synagogue. RSVP at bit.ly/JewishAbortionAccess.
