3/26 The Challenge of Our Times: Belonging and Othering, Wednesday, March 26th at 3pm ET: The root of all inequality is the process of othering – and its solution is the practice of belonging. Join Jewish Federations’ Center for Jewish Belonging for an important discussion with John Powell of the Belonging and Othering Institute. We all yearn for connection and community, but we live in a time when calls for further division along the well-wrought lines of religion, race, ethnicity, caste, and sexuality are pervasive. Belonging without Othering prescribes a new approach that encourages us to turn toward one another in unprecedented and radical ways.
