Freedom Shabbat

At Kavana we will join communities around the world in speaking out against human trafficking on Freedom Shabbat, April 23, during Passover. We were once slaves in Egypt and we have never stopped fighting for our own freedom and that of others. On Freedom Shabbat we will bring energy to the fight against modern slavery through education, song and discussion. Please join this interactive day of reflection, led by local Jewish abolitionist Robert Beiser, as we come together for this amazing community event!
