Join our beloved Tribe community as we celebrate the holiday of Passover! This year, we will reflect upon the Passover Haggadah through the lens of Racism. As we move through various aspects of the Passover Seder, we will utilize traditional themes to shine light upon the importance of studying Racism as Jews and the ways in which we can become anti-racists. Throughout this journey together, we will explore tensions in each individual such as being an oppressor while also being oppressed, external and internal constraints (freedom from and freedom to), and the exhaustion and reward of anti-racism work. Passover is a journey of beginning, rather than an end. We hope you will accompany us as we strive to imagine and enact a new and brighter future using wisdom from the Jewish tradition.”

A note on freedom from and freedom to:

“Freedom from” refers to being freed from external forces and restrictions such as being free from slavery or the status of being owned by another human being.

“Freedom to” refers to control and direction in one’s personal life. This allows humans to make their own decisions and choose their own purpose in life. This sense of freedom focuses on the internal forces, understanding that each human being is their own master.
