Faith, Social Justice, and Allyship: A Panel Discussion

We are so excited to be joining Ani Zonneveld (Muslims for Progressive Values), Anjli Shah (Jains for Justice), and Dr. Simran Jeet Singh for a panel as part of Young Jains of America’s YJA Day 2020, taking place on Saturday, July 11!

Sadhana board member Hari Venkatachalam will be speaking as part of “Faith, Social Justice, and Allyship: A Panel Discussion” at 5 pm EST.

Where does faith align with the push for justice, and where does it diverge? How do justice-based faith advocates interpret traditional teachings to support advancing justice? What challenges do faith leaders face when speaking with their own communities? What role does non-violence play in these conversations - and is there something even more relevant to social justice?”

Join us for a conversation with social justice leaders from Muslim, Sikh, Hindu, and Jain faiths as we tackle these questions and more.
