Rimonin is a collectively sponsored poet-in-residence project for Puerto Rican Jewish poet Aurora Levins Morales to create new liturgy that is fully inclusive of Indigenous Jews and Jews of Color, rooted in global, diasporic Jewish cultures, is in accountable relationship with local indigenous people wherever we're located, and recognizes and responds to the danger and opportunity of our ecological crisis.
In PartnershipRimonim is fully collaborative. Our partners contribute financially, through support labor, and by engaging in deep conversations about crafting prayers and rituals that meet the political and spiritual needs of Jewish people and our friends who share a passion or justice.
joyous and radical and richly blends the depth of meaning we find in words repeated for thousands of years with the spiritual, moral and political needs of this moment, in which we either dismantle the systemic injustices that drive the destruction of our ecosystem or we watch our world crumble away. Although together we’ll be creating abundant resources for Jewish holidays, at the heart of the project are Shabbat and other home practices and daily rituals we can take with us wherever we go, tools to anchor us into our most deeply held values and connections as we work to build the just world we dream of, making a web of new relationships and a book of shared liturgy we can carry in our hearts and in our pockets.
