Rabbi Hilly Haber Moderates Panel of Social Justice Advocates on Yom Kippur

October 9, 2019 | General News | Worship and High Holidays | Repairing the World


On Yom Kippur, to deepen our understanding of spiritual repair and renewal, we invited our congregation to join for a conversation about teshuvah (return) in the age of mass incarceration. Rabbi Hilly Haber moderated a panel discussion between Terrance Coffie, Topeka K. Sam, and Kempis “Ghani” Songster whose lives have been directly impacted by the criminal justice system, and who have dedicated themselves to creating social and political change in America.
