Today is Trans Day of Visibility. We want to share this from CBST, a q***r Synagogue in NYC. According to Rabbi Denise Eger, as stated in her book, Where Pride Dwells, Trans Visibility Day was, "created in 2009 as a day to raise positive awareness of the transgender community....Trans Visibility day celebrates the contributions and raises of the transgender community.

Today is ! Every March 31, communities around the world mark Trans Day of Visibility ( ), celebrating trans and nonbinary and gender-nonconforming people who expand our understanding of the world and its possibilities.

CBST is particularly blessed to have many and members, friends, colleagues, and teachers, and we hope you’ll take time today to enjoy the wealth of creativity, brilliance, and opportunities to take action.

Not sure about the sandwich part...but we'll definitely have latkes and jelly doughnuts Friday 5pm on Stine Lake

See you there!

what better way to treat yourself and embrace this unique year than with a new tradition — a mouth-watering, carb-tastic latke sandwich. Crunchy on the outside, warm and soft on the inside, latkes make the perfect bun for any juicy deli meat.
