SUMMARY:Tisha B'Av 5785: Crumbling the Walls of Siege and Starvation
DESCRIPTION: 📅 Sunday\, August 3rd🕝 2pm Pacific / 5pm Eastern📍In Person: UN Plaza\, 355 McAllister St\, San Francisco\, CA 94102📝 In Person: Learn more and register for in person ritual here ♿ In Person Accessibility: Masks required  (unless you are medically unable); more accessibility info here⚫ How to Prepare: Wear black\, bring a stone and\, if you have\, a tallit and shofar. Please bring a camping chair if sitting on the ground or standing for 1.5 hours isn't accessible for you. 💻 Online: Register here for Tisha B'av Online Ritual \nPublic Fast for Gaza on Tish’a B’Av: Join Rabbis for Ceasefire\, JVP-Bay Area\, If Not Now\, Beyt Tikkun and Shomeret Shalom\, and JSWANA Bay for a public grief ritual. \nTisha B’Av is a Jewish day of mourning that marks tragedies throughout Jewish history\, beginning with the destruction of the first and second temples. We meet this year's Tisha B'Av in a moment of unthinkable tragedy--as we witness nearly two years of a genocide in Gaza and the Israeli government's campaign of starving the Palestinian people in Gaza.  \nIn many Jewish communities it is traditional to fast on Tisha b’Av and in times of great peril. On Tisha b’Av we also read Eicha\, the Book of Lamentations. Rituals such as kriya\, the tearing of cloth in mourning\, is another psycho-spiritual technology of our tradition that we will draw open this year. In the face of the unfathomable ongoing genocide and starvation in Gaza\, we will use the power of Jewish tradition to publicly express our grief and invite our community to action\, to stop the genocide and starvation of the people of Gaza. \nAll are invited to participate\, regardless of your religious identity and relationship to Judaism. \nWe invite all attending to learn these songs\, which we'll be singing during the ritual. We will have printed song sheets available with Hebrew and English lyrics: Oseh Shalom\, Turkish melody\, setting by Rinat Abastado and  Ayeka\, by Aly Halpert   \nMasks will be required unless you are medically unable.
