LimmudFest New Orleans 2016

Many of us are concerned about issues of social justice, but are not sure how to take action that will effect true change. In this workshop, we will use the "social action wheel" (originally designed by the Minnesota Campus Compact) to think about the ways -- as individuals and as a community -- we might move from charitable philanthropy (donating money) and direct service (feeding homeless people, for example) to a variety of community-engaged actions, such as advocacy, education, organizing, and social entrepreneurship, to create a more just world.
