Describe the Organization's Program Activity:

Part 3 - Line 4a

LEARN / EDUCATIONAL RESOURCESPASSPORT TO PEOPLEHOOD IS AN EDUCATIONAL RESOURCE THAT STRENGTHENS JEWISH IDENTITY BY EXPANDING AWARENESS OF THE RACIAL, ETHNIC AND CULTURAL DIVERSITY OF JEWS AROUND THE WORLD. ACCORDING TO OUR RESEARCH, JEWS ARE MORE DIVERSE THAN MANY ASSUME APPROXIMATELY 20% OF AMERICA'S 6 MILLION JEWS OR 1,200,000 ARE AFRICAN AMERICAN, ASIAN, LATINO, MIXED-RACE, SEPHARDIC, AND MIZRAHI BY BIRTH, INTERMARRIAGE, CONVERSION AND ADOPTION. AND JEWS OF ALL BACKGROUNDS, WHO ARE GROWING UP IN A DIVERSE AND INTERCONNECTED WORLD, VALUE DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION. JEWS ARE A MULTICULTURAL PEOPLE WHO LIVE AROUND THE WORLD, YET THERE ARE VERY FEW JEWISH EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES THAT ADEQUATELY ADDRESS THE DEMOGRAPHIC REALITY OF CONTEMPORARY JEWISH LIFE.


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
