UPDATE: We're having some unexpected technical issues with Zoom, so we are unable to broadcast this program directly to Facebook. But we'll be uploading the conversation to Facebook and YouTube as soon as it's over, so you won't miss a moment of our conversation with Andre Ivory.

With social and political unrest across North America, many of us have been forced to reckon with issues of inequality, systemic racism and our own role in perpetuating unjust systems. Andre Ivory will be virtually returning to Beth Tzedec for a conversation with Reb Steve to discuss the intersections of race, Judaism and existing in the world as a Jew of Colour.

This week's conversation will be broadcast live to the Beth Tzedec Facebook page and YouTube channel. Comment with your questions for Andre on either platform!
