One Book, One Rodfei Zedek

One Book, One Rodfei Zedek

One Book, One Rodfei Zedek is meant to stimulate conversations, both formal and informal, including several discussion sessions throughout the year.

Our book selection for the year 5781 (2020-2021) is Ibram X. Kendi's How to Be an Antiracist.  Please email Rabbi Minkus if you would like a book, as the Rabbi will be purchasing in bulk from the seminary co-op. The next session will be Wednesday, August 12 at 7pm.

Find out more about Ibram X. Kendi.
