ABOUT THE EVENT:
Building Beloved Community
For generations, we have carried the Torah’s audacious dream of a society redeemed, a world imbued with justice and shared responsibility. To manifest that dream, we must start with the realization that every person is created in God’s own image, deserving of love and dignity.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER:
Rabbi Sharon Brous is the senior and founding rabbi of IKAR and has devoted her rabbinate to reinvigorating Jewish tradition and practice and advancing soulful, multi-faith justice work in Los Angeles and around the country. Brous’s 2016 TED talk, “Reclaiming Religion,” has been viewed by more than 1.4 million people and translated into 23 languages. In 2013, she blessed President Obama and Vice President Biden at the Inaugural National Prayer Service, and returned in 2021 to bless President Biden and Vice President Harris, and then to lead the White House Passover Seder that spring.
