Multi-faith vigil and prayer protest in DC

I attended and documented a multi-faith vigil and prayer protest in DC this evening (in the Columbia Heights Civic Plaza). It was one of many large gatherings in the city today protesting the unwarranted and unwanted invasion of the city.

Numerous faith-based groups - Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Muslim & others - were represented in this Vigil of Prayer. It was sponsored by Jews United For Justice, Mt. Vernon Place United Methodist Church, Unitarian Universalists for Social Justice, The Festival Center, Congregation Action Network, and Washington Interfaith Network.
From the organizer's call to action:
"The overreach of the federal government has brought violence into our streets. Let us reclaim these spaces as sacred. Together, we will make it clear to the powers that be: we are not afraid. We will defend D.C."

Solidarity.

Quarantine Diary 48 | part 2 / Vigil for Justice

 Ruth and I participated in the weekly vigil for justice with our fellow congregants in Fabrangen.

Again, the shofar was sounded to awaken us.
