soniaBefore I get to the links, yay for the Supreme Court decision supporting LGBTQ rights at work. I am warily waiting to see how this can be used against us or twisted into a defeat, but meanwhile, YAY!!! I'm wondering if Gorsuch had some kind of come-to-Jesus moment when he realized he didn't want to go down in history as being on the side of pure evil.

In the Cloud by the Velveteen Rabbi.
Our task is to protect ourselves and each other during these pandemic times. To end racism in all its forms. To cultivate the chutzpah of believing we can make the world a better place alongside the humility of knowing that we don't have all the answers. When the cloud lifts, we move forward. When the cloud doesn't lift, we do what we can to build justice right here where we are.
