Washington DC The Book of Life: A Day of Action

WHEN:

9/29/2016

WHERE:

The Book of Life: A Day of Action, Washington DC

DESCRIPTION:

Donald Trump has built a campaign around targeted exclusion, racism and hatred. As Jews, we’ve seen this before, and we reject Trump’s policy and politics. As Election Day draws near, it's time to stand up strong against the politics of hate. That’s why on September 29, we're joining with Bend the Arc Jewish Action for a national Day of Action, "The Book of Life." We'll gather outside the new Trump International Hotel in downtown DC. Together, we'll inscribe into our community's book of life the rights and vision we have for our community this year.

Stand with us against the politics of hate. Let the whole country know that Jews reject Trump’s anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim, anti-woman, and violent agenda, and let's affirm the humanity and dignity of all people. RSVP: http://org2.salsalabs.com/o/5483/p/salsa/event/common/public/?event_KEY=84305 Together we can create an America that stands firm as a tolerant, safe place - an America pursuing the principles of inclusion, equity, and democracy. Join us on September 29 as we pledge to take this fight into the Jewish new year.
