In conjunction with the observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Rabbi Alan Katz, rabbi emeritus of Temple Sinai, Rochester, NY, will share his personal experience and memories from two powerful journeys through the South. In 2015 when the Union for Reform Judaism partnered with the NAACP in “America’s Journey for Justice” march from Selma, Alabama to Washington, D.C., Rabbi Katz was one of many rabbis who took turns carrying a sacred Torah as they walked the 800 plus mile journey. Then in January 2019, Rabbi Katz was joined by his wife, Rabbi Jan Katz, on a nine-day, 3000-mile car trip to all the civil rights museums and memorials in Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee. Rabbi Katz will enhance the presentation with his photos from these experiences. Registration required for Zoom link.
