ASPERGER’S ARE US

This July, Disability Pride Month, join us for an inspiring look at how four friends on the autism spectrum prepare for their final comedy show before going their separate ways.

As members of the comedy troupe Asperger’s Are Us, they’ve spent years using humor to connect with audiences and challenge misconceptions about autism. Now, as they face the bittersweet reality of moving on, their journey becomes a heartfelt exploration of friendship, identity, and the power of laughter to break barriers. Don’t miss this uplifting documentary that proves comedy is for everyone!

THE EQUALITY ACT
Keshet and its partners are mobilizing Jewish communities in support of the Equality Act. The Equality Act is proposed federal legislation that would establish non-discrimination protections for LGBTQ Americans. Congress needs to hear from us that we want the Equality Act passed and sent to President Biden, who has promised to sign it.

Go to keshetonline.org/equalityact and use the interactive form to quickly send an email/tweet a message to your senators and request stamped postcard packs from Keshet that you can mail to your senators in Congress.



Interested in learning how to connect, engage, and/or take action on the issues that face many communities across the world, as well as our own?  Here is a list of organizations dedicated to the education of constructive social engagement and social responsibility.
