At Tanenbaum, we’ve seen the value of people having authentic and intentional conversations around building respect for religious difference, and what that means for them in their real lives. 

Conversations for Building Respect is an opportunity for everyone to use our resources to explore: How do we practically/actually build respect for religious difference? What’s required of each of us? And how can we support each other in this endeavor?  

Building respect for religious difference happens both on the individual level and the institutional level.  Conversations is an opportunity for individuals to engage with issues centered around promoting justice and building respect within and across our communities. It’s an opportunity to record and share on the progress we’re making to build respect for religious difference. 

To contribute, either as a host or participant, please access the link below to record a short video, upload a photo, or simply write in text telling us more about a purposeful conversation you (and others around you) had around building respect. 

When sharing, you will be asked to give us more information about the event itself (when, where, how many people were present, etc.), and to share some personal reflections from the conversation about what the experience was like for you personally, as well as what you plan to do next!  

We ask that everyone answer the prompts from their own perspectives and only share insights you feel comfortable disclosing.
