Wednesday, September 4, 7-8:30pm, Bexley Public Library [auditorium], 2411 E. Main St.

We will be screening portions of the documentary “Jews Step Forward.”

“Few are willing to brave the disapproval of their fellows, the censure of their colleagues, the wrath of their society. Moral courage is a rarer commodity than bravery in battle or great intelligence. Yet it is the one essential, vital quality for those who seek to change a world that yields most painfully to change. Each time a person stands up for an idea, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, (s)he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.” — Robert F. Kennedy

The moral voices of bravery and justice that are depicted in “Jews Step Forward” will be followed by a discussion of the personal experiences of our members.

Jewish Voice for Peace members are inspired by Jewish tradition to work together for peace, social justice, equality, human rights, respect for international law, and a U.S. foreign policy based on these ideals.

Hosted by Jewish Voice for Peace Central Ohio.
