The Jewish Liberation Fund and IfNotNow are sponsoring “Who Speaks for the Jews,” a deep dive into understanding the forces that shape American Jewish life.
At this time of year, people often make charitable donations. There are many wonderful Jewish social justice organizations covering a spectrum of issues that are worth supporting this season!
By giving millions to those who are already rich and famous, the prize has made itself meaningless at best.
The patina of bling and marketing which are brought to the enterprise by branding companies and focus groups, will eventually roll off the back of Judaism like so much dust. If we are committed to adding substantively to the building that is Judaism, as judged by future generations—we don’t get there through sparkly things and naming opportunities. We get there by doing what we’ve always done—teaching Torah, davening, keeping Shabbes, creating a more just world.
