Join Moving to Our Center for this important conversation.
Over the past year and across the country, we have seen a proliferation of anti-LGBTQ+ legislation, resulting in book bans, new educational policy, and policy targeting trans kids in particular. Protestors have disrupted drag queen story hours, and hate crimes against the community have continued to increase. What can and should we be doing to respond? Does Judaism provide unique guidance that we can leverage to be better allies? Join us for a lively and personal discussion with some of Denver’s preeminent thought leaders in the LGBTQ+ community as we dive into these important and immediate issues.
