Brookview Golden Valley
For 24 years, Jewish Community Action's Annual Freedom Seder has brought together people from diverse backgrounds to retell the Pesach story in connection with modern-day liberation movements. This year, we'll focus on the many ways Minnesotans are "welcoming the stranger" under the thumb of oppression.
We will conclude with a vegetarian meal, and offer a small seder sampling earlier in the program, including both traditional and gluten-free matzah options.
