SUMMARY:Civic Saturday: IN GOOD FAITH
DESCRIPTION:In a time of deep anxiety\, disconnectedness\, and political polarization\, people need a place to come together in civic community — face-to-face or virtually — to reflect on and rededicate ourselves to the values and practices of being a contributing member in civic life within the United States. Civic Saturday began in Seattle and is now in more than 100 cities across the country.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us Feb. 18 for a very special Civic Saturday in conjunction with the Nebraska History Museum’s new exhibition\, Democracy In America: A Great Leap of Faith.  Civic Saturday gathers friends and strangers together to nurture a spirit of shared purpose. At each gathering\, we connect around the values and practices of being an active citizen\, reckon with and reflect on our nation’s creed\, and build relationships that create new civic traditions that are joyful and communal.\nLearn more about Civic Saturdays: bitly.com/CivSatNeb

SUMMARY:Committee Hearing: LB20 (Voting Rights Restoration)
DESCRIPTION:The Nebraska Legislature’s Government\, Military\, and Veterans Affairs Committee will hear public testimony on LB20\, which would restore voting rights for nearly 20\,000 Nebraskans who have completed their felony sentences\, including probation and/or parole.\n1:30 pm CST – Wednesday\, Feb. 22 – Room 1507 – Nebraska State Capitol\, 1445 K St.\nNebraska is one of the few states to withhold voting rights beyond the completion of a sentence for a felony conviction. In Nebraska\, people previously convicted of a felony must wait an additional two years past the completion of their sentence – including probation and parole – to vote.  While some argue that the waiting period gives people previously convicted of a felony a chance to prove that they are reformed\, waiting periods like these can cause those with previous convictions to feel excluded from their communities and impact their ability to reintegrate into society.\nCan’t make the hearing? Submit a comment online for the official record. This must be done before NOON CST on Tuesday\, Feb. 21.

SUMMARY:Race\, Religion\, and Social Justice Conference 2023
DESCRIPTION:Tri-Faith Initiative and the University of Nebraska at Omaha’s Department of Religious Studies invite you to the second annual Race\, Religion\, and Social Justice Conference on June 7-8 at the Tri-Faith Commons in Omaha.\nThis year’s theme is “Building Bridges of Hope.” Hope is not simply wishful thinking. Hope is an intentional\, confident expectation that the social issues we are addressing ought to\, and can\, be overcome. This conference is making connections across differences – institutional differences\, divided communities\, and dissimilarities between individuals.\nThe conference will address intersections between race\, religion\, and social justice across different sectors of society. We invite multi-sector approaches — nonprofit and civic leaders\, diversity\, equity\, access\, and inclusion practitioners\, community members\, educators\, physical and mental health practitioners\, artists\, religious communities\, and scholars.\nREGISTER FOR THIS EVENT
