  • DC Campaign Selection House Meetings

    DC

    DC leaders and organizers have been preparing for 5779 with months of thoughtful conversations to explore what campaign we might work on next in the District. The DC Campaign Selection Team is ready to burst into this new year with potential campaigns that will help bring us closer to racial and economic justice in the District. For our next campaign to be successful, we need you, our JUFJ community, to tell us which of the possible campaigns are most aligned with JUFJ's values and strengths, and for which campaign(s) you'd be excited to take action.

  • Racism and Antisemitism Workshop 1: Dushaw Hockett

    Montgomery County
    The Community Room at the Carlton
    4550 N Park Ave, Chevy Chase, MD

    In community organizing we make change by building the collective power of individuals. Organizing for racial equity can work the same way. No matter who we are, we all carry implicit bias within us that affects the way we see, treat, and form relationships with other people.

  • Racism and Antisemitism Workshop 2: George Derek Musgrove

    DC

    It’s always important to understand the history of the places we live, work, and organize in. That’s even more true when that place happens to be our nation’s capital, a city that has often served as a national battleground over things like slavery, segregation, civil rights, the drug war, and gentrification.

  • DC Annual Community Meeting

    DC

    This is the moment we've all been waiting for! It's time for JUFJ to select our next DC campaigns! Dozens of people have guided our campaign selection process so far, thinking carefully about what change we can make in our city to move toward racial, social, and economic equity.

    Join us to be in community, to eat together, and to help decide on our path forward. We will build this world with love — but we also need an action plan. Come to this meeting to connect with your community and determine the next steps JUFJ will take in DC.

  • Racism and Antisemitism Workshop 3: Suzanne Feinspan

In this workshop, we will explore some questions through interactive exercises and discussion.

  • Environmental Gentrification: The Case Of Anacostia (Workshop)

    DC
    Foundry United Methodist Church
    1500 16th St NW, Washington, DC

    The Anacostia River—one of the most polluted rivers in the US for decades—has long been the dividing line of income inequality in DC. In the past few years, the city has invested heavily in cleaning up the river, bringing development to its shores – in fact, the banks of the Anacostia are currently DC’s fastest-growing area. But as housing prices increase, those who have lived along the banks of the river and suffered its environmental effects are being pushed out, just as the river is finally getting clean. Learn about how environmental gentrification and the affordable housing crisis are affecting our neighbors living on the banks of DC’s iconic river.
