Happy Election Day, SOJOURN community! Did you know that Judaism actually has a lot to say about community responsibility in choosing leaders? In Pirke Avot, Hillel taught "Al tifros min hatzibur, Do not separate yourself from the community.” In the Babylonian Talmud, Rabbi Yitzchak taught that “A ruler is not to be appointed unless the community is first consulted.” Tell us in the comments 1) What being a Jewish voter means to you, and 2) how your vote impacts the LGBTQ+ community. Happy voting! Image descriptions: Image 1 is a photo of a pile of red, white, and blue buttons that say "Vote", with text in purple, blue, white, and rainbow letters that reads "Voting is Jewish! Vote with pride!" Image 2 has the same photo as the background, and features two white cartoon clouds with black text inside them, reading "What does being a Jewish voter mean to you?" and "How does your vote impact the LGBTQ+ community?" #ElectionDay #Voting #JewishLGBTQ #LGBTQJews #SojournGSD
