Dancing on the Tisha B’av

Tisha B’Av (the ninth day of the Hebrew month of Av) commemorates, among other things, the destruction of the First and Second Temples in Jerusalem, and the subsequent dispersion of the Jewish people throughout the world. Join Rev. Joe Cherry as he talks about scars and celebrations…about the Jewish holy day of Tisha B’av, a day of mourning and remem- brance of a number of disasters in Jewish history. And how mourning, remembrance and celebration is also re ected in the wider community, such as in the observance of Gay Pride.
