Be'chol
Lashon (In every Tongue)
We are different cultures, languages and colors,
yet we share Israel, Hebrew and Torah
Be'chol Lashon (In Every Tongue)
is a community building and research initiative of the Institute for Jewish & Community Research that seeks to strengthen the Jewish people through racial and ethnic inclusiveness, both in the United States and around the world.
The goals of Be'chol Lashon are:
- To help nurture and grow existing Jewish communities of color;
- To build networks among isolated Jewish groups (and individuals) of color;
- To build connections between Jews of color and the majority white community;
- To build connections between Jews and non-Jews of all colors and ethnicities; and
- To increase the Jewish population by being more open to those who would like to convert/return to Judaism.
