Rafi Forbush to Speak Tomorrow
Shabbat morning, August 30
Rafi Forbush has been a part of our lives at Beth Jacob for all of his life (and our Purim celebration wouldn't be the same without him!).
Tomorrow during services at Beth Jacob Congregation, this former Beth Jacob USYer will share his experiences growing up as Jew of Color in a world of whiteness. As the events in Ferguson and the rampant anti-semitism throughout the world momentarily recedes into the background for some, it remains a real issue for many.
