SUMMARY:The R.A.C.E. Run - Race for Awareness\, Courage and Empowerment
DESCRIPTION:The R.A.C.E. Run – Race for Awareness\, Courage and Empowerment – is Fleur O’Conner’s Bat Mitzvah project. Read more from Fleur…. \nIn September\, at my Bat Mitzvah\, I talked about wanting to sponsor a young girl from Kenya and give her the opportunity to come to Halifax and experience life here.  My hope was to find a girl around my age who could come and live with us for a few weeks\, attend school and participate in activities in Halifax.  Through the research to get connected with the right people we realized that making a trip to Kenya should be part of our journey.  In early March my family and I travelled to Kenya and visited Iten\, which is the small town where many world class runners come from.  We met Monicah Kiplagat (who we knew was interested in our project) and she agreed to allow her daughter\, Dorothy\, to come to Halifax.  The exciting news is that Dorothy is en route to Halifax now! \nSince my Bat Mitzvah I have been working with my family on some different fundraising projects. All the money raised goes towards bringing Dorothy to Halifax. We worked with a world class runner from Iten\, Johana Karienkei\, who came to Halifax in 2015 and ran the Bluenose. He has a small business that makes custom bead bracelets for people all over the world.  Since Dorothy will be coming to school at Armbrae we had him make a bracelet with the Canada and Kenya flag and “Armbrae” on it.  We sold these to students at school and raised almost $1000.  We recently fitted everyone with their bracelets at a special assembly and the students were so excited. \nOur big fundraiser is a race that we are organizing\, called The R.A.C.E. Run – Race for Awareness\, Courage and Empowerment.  We are holding this race on Sunday\, April 23rd\, at Point Pleasant Park.  Dorothy will be at the race to cheer everyone on at the start and she will also be running the race with me\, hand in hand. There will also be surprises at the race for all participants! We are hoping this experience will be a cultural exchange for anyone who participants in the race.  We are so excited that we have more than 70 participants!  You are welcome to come join us to run OR walk the 5K race on April 23rd.  Check out the registration page below and register to be a part of making this dream come true for Dorothy.  If you don’t want to run please consider coming out to cheer\, volunteer or even donate. \nYou can sign up for everything at our registration site. \nhttps://raceroster.com/events/2017/12165/the-race-run \nI hope you will get to meet Dorothy!

SUMMARY:NaKh and Nosh: Bible Beyond the Torah
DESCRIPTION:Although Jews are the people of the book\, there are many parts of the Jewish bible\, the TaNaKh\, we never read in services. The word TaNaKh is an acronym for the Jewish Bible’s 3 categories of books: the Torah (the five books of Moses)\, Nevi’im (the Prophets)\, and Ketuvim (the Scriptures). Over the course of the Jewish year\, we read the full Torah\, but we never read the full books of NaKh (Nevi’im and Ketuvim). \nFollowing Shabbat services\, join NaKh and Nosh and explore the later parts of the TaNaKh (Bible) with Rabbi Rank

SUMMARY:Film Screening - Paragraph 175
DESCRIPTION:The screening of the film\, Paragraph 175\, will be followed by a panel discussion. Ken Setterington\, award-winning author of Branded by the Pink Triangle\, will be the keynote speaker. He will be joined by playwright Garry Williams\, artist & chronicler Robin Metcalfe\, and Holocaust scholar Doroto Glowacka\, in a panel moderated by lawyer and activist Kevin Kindred. \nParagraph 175 (known formally as §175 StGB; also known as Section 175 in English) was a provision of the German Criminal Code from 15 May 1871 to 10 March 1994 which made homosexual acts between males a crime.  Early versions also criminalized bestiality as well as forms of prostitution and underage sexual abuse.  The Nazis broadened the law in 1935; and in prosecutions that followed\, thousands died in concentration camps as a widespread social persecution of homosexuals took place.  Between 1933 and 1945\, 100\,000 men were arrested under Paragraph 175. Some were imprisoned\, others were sent to concentration camps. Only about 4\,000 survived. \nParagraph 175 is also a documentary film\, directed by Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman\, and narrated by British actor Rupert Everett. It chronicles the lives of several gay men and one lesbian who were persecuted by the Nazis.  \nIn 2000\, fewer than ten of the survivors were known to be still living. The five who tell their stories for the first time help to fill a gap in the historical record and reveal the lasting consequences borne by gay men and women who lived through it\, including: Karl Gorath; Gad Beck (the half-Jewish resistance fighter who spent the war helping refugees escape Berlin); Annette Eick\, a Jewish lesbian who escaped to England with the help of a woman she loved; Albrecht Becker\, German Christian photographer\, who was arrested and imprisoned for homosexuality\, then joined the army on his release because he “wanted to be with men”; Pierre Seel\, the French Alsatian teenager\, who watched as his lover was eaten alive by dogs in the camps. \nThis is where the stories of Jews and the LGBTQ population intersect – we share a painful\, tragic history about which many people still know very little.  It seems especially fitting that we mark International Holocaust Memorial Day (which falls on 27 January 2017) by acknowledging this shared history.   \nAmerican anthropologist Margaret Mead famously said “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful\, committed\, citizens can change the world. Indeed\, it is the only thing that ever has.”  Join us as our two communities become catalysts for change. \nWe are particularly grateful for the support and generosity of Greg Hirsch and Jim Spatz who make this event possible.
