SUMMARY:Zikaron BaSalon - Memories in the Living Room
DESCRIPTION:Zikaron BaSalon is an annual event\, which takes place on Israeli Holocaust Memorial Day. Zikaron BaSalon started in Israel\, in a living room where a few friends gathered in 2010 and experienced an extraordinary and meaningful event. The idea was born from the understanding that the connection between us and the memories of the Holocaust\, has significantly deteriorated. Today\, the program operates in more than 50 countries around the world. \n  \nAlongside formal events\, Zikaron BaSalon offers a new\, meaningful and intimate way to commemorate this day and address its implications through discussions at home among family\, friends and guests. It is a unique and authentic tradition of people gathering together to open their hearts to the stories of the survivors\, sing\, think\, read\, talk and most importantly- listen. \n  \nZikaron BaSalon happens in the living room space of a home with 15-40 people. The event consists of three parts: testimony\, expression part and open discussion. Light refreshments will be served. \n  \nRead more at http://www.zikaronbasalon.org/ \n  \nJoin us for a meaningful evening of Zikaron BaSalon in Houston! \n​You will be notified closer to the event of your assigned location.

SUMMARY:Justice for Janitors Prayer Vigil Outside of Bargaining
DESCRIPTION:The J4J team has a fun-filled line-up of activities for the rest of the month of May leading up to the janitors’ contract expiration on May 31st. \n#RaiseHouston #‎RaiseAmerica‬ ‪#‎MakeHoustonGreat‬ ‪#‎HoustonJanitors‬ #Fightfor15 \nFaith leader allies from several different religious traditions will hold a prayer vigil as janitors & cleaning contractors engage in their final round of bargaining.  Pray for justice! \nArriba la union y abajo la explotación! We’re asking building owners to support a contract that lifts Houston’s working families. \nThe Fortune 500 companies who dominate our skyline continue to make record profits yet ⅓ of Houstonians make less than $12 an hour. As companies in Houston prosper\, no Houstonian should be left behind\, stand with us if you believe Houston should work for every Houstonian\, not just the very rich.
