Is this the fast I desire? A space to learn and think about fasting in Jewish tradition and in our lives this year (on Zoom)

Fasting on Yom Kippur is a central feature of the day, and yet for many people in our community, eating on Yom Kippur is a necessity. Before the chaggim each year we create a space in community to learn some traditional texts about the purpose of fasting, and encounter some alternative rituals and ways of approaching Yom Kippur for those who are religiously obligated to eat.
