    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Participants of the We the People Community Quilt project were asked to answer a number of questions regarding their quilt square. <br />
1. What does your square represent? Our amazing history - Buffalo&#039;s first Jewish congregation. The first female rabbi to lead a congregation in Buffalo. And Temple Beth Tzebek is a leader championing accessibility for all<br />
2. Why did you choose these symbols? The temple&#039;s doors are open to all who seek to worship, learn, and serve the community. The dove is a symbol of peace, love, purity, and the human soul, &#039;shalom&#039; is an ancient Hebrew word commonly translated as &#039;peace.&#039; It represents total flourishing, well-being, and harmony across all parts of life. <br />
3. What do you hope viewers notice or feel?  Peaceful co-existence rather than us vs them]]></dcterms:description>
