The actual program may be adjusted to address current events and court decisions at the time of the programs and their impact as well as consideration of impact on the Jewish community and issues of Tikkun Olam. \nThe first 100 registrants will receive a pocket-sized copy of the US Constitution for use during and after the program. Light desserts will also be provided. \nAbout the speaker:\nJudge Barzilay was appointed to the federal bench by President Bill Clinton in 1998 and spent 18 years as a judge on the US Court of International Trade in New York. She also sat by designation of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court on several US Appellate Courts and at trials for the Southern District of New York in cases of general federal jurisprudence. She has written and published over 200 judicial opinions on multiple topics. After her service on the bench\, Judge Barzilay joined the faculty of the law school at William and Mary in Williamsburg\, VA where she taught for 5 years. She holds a BA in English and Education from Wichita State University and holds a Master’s Degree and Juris Doctorate from Rutgers University.\nContact: Adult Learning URL:https://tbsneedham.org/event/the-us-constitution-through-a-2025-lens-2/ LOCATION:Beit Midrash CATEGORIES:Adult Learning,Events,Homepage Feature ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://tbsneedham.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/constitution-image-e1758126829821.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=US/Eastern:20250914T130000 DTEND;TZID=US/Eastern:20250914T140000 DTSTAMP:20260504T113229 CREATED:20250825T182128Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250913T211029Z UID:10006124-1757854800-1757858400@tbsneedham.org SUMMARY:ConNEXTions+ Welcome Back Lunch DESCRIPTION:Welcome back to another wonderful year of ConNEXTions+!

A joint venturer is someone who aids in the commission of a crime. The actual perpetrator may serve his or her time and be released while\, in Massachusetts\, the joint venturer can be sentenced to life without parole. “Felony murder” laws hold people liable for murder if they participated in a felony\, such as a robbery\, that resulted in someone’s death. These laws impose sentences on people who neither intended to kill nor anticipated a death\, and even on those who did not participate in the killing. One out of six people incarcerated in Massachusetts is serving a LWOP sentence\, thus stripped of hope and denied their capacity to rehabilitate. Shockingly\, Massachusetts is second only to Louisiana for having the highest percentage in the country of those incarcerated serving LWOP. The Coalition to End Life Without Parole (CELWOP) supports An Act to Reduce Mass Incarceration and The Elder Parole Bill. These bills would eliminate LWOP by mandating parole review eligibility in all instances starting at 25 years of incarceration\, stopping prisons from acting as nursing homes\, and establishing restorative justice programs for those incarcerated in Massachusetts on sentences in excess of 25 years. Learn about CELWOP’s work with faith-based groups\, unions\, schools and colleges\, community-based and activist organizations\, to challenge false the narrative that people convicted of violent offenses are irredeemable and undeserving of a second chance. Hear directly from formerly incarcerated panelists\, followed by Q&A. Panel will be moderated by Cynthia Kussy-Goldberg\, Community Organizer for CELWOP and Director of the F8Foundation\, which helps men and women who are returning to society acclimate and succeed. \nWith gratitude to the Jewish Alliance of Law and Social Action for supporting this platform. \nRegister: t-b-s.me/lifewithoutparole URL:https://tbsneedham.org/event/life-without-parole-not-a-get-out-of-jail-free-proposition/ LOCATION:Beit Midrash CATEGORIES:Events,Social Justice END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=US/Eastern:20250428T120000 DTEND;TZID=US/Eastern:20250428T133000 DTSTAMP:20260504T113229 CREATED:20241226T203547Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250427T231020Z UID:10001828-1745841600-1745847000@tbsneedham.org SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn DESCRIPTION:Visual Arts meet Jewish Music in this remarkable feast for the senses\, with presenter Jerry Goldberg.
