POST-ELECTION UNITY GATHERING TONIGHT

From North Jersey Pride:

Please join North Jersey Pride, the South Orange/Maplewood Community Coalition on Race, representatives of the ADL - Anti-Defamation League and other social justice groups, and local clergy as we come together to move forward with love and good deeds into an uncertain future.

8 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. - Tonight - Congregation Beth El, 222 Irvington Ave., South Orange.

We pledge to work hard so the hateful tenor of this election campaign will not result in further discrimination. We pledge to protect human rights, and fight bigotry.

There will be opportunities to learn about groups that represent communities that have felt challenged by the 2016 campaign, with promotional materials, sign-up sheets, and concrete suggestions of actions residents can take to support their work.

If you have words of wisdom and inspiration to share, petitions, or suggestions of other action steps, please bring them.

All are welcome.
