Socially Distanced Demonstrations in Support of BLM

We are meeting on the morning of Yom Kippur to demonstrate our support for Black Live Matter. It is a small action that conveys an important message to the public: there is a Jewish congregation in town that, as our signs read, stands against racial injustice and in solidarity with the Black Lives Movement. We aim to show that as Jews we bear witness and shall not remain silent. We are carefully body-distanced and wear mask, and will hold signs on Rio Grande Boulevard. Bring your own signs to hold or use one of ours. Signs should not speak for the Jewish community of ABQ, but for ourselves, nor should they include issues of abolishing or defunding polics.
