I am a 71 year old white Jewish female who read your post from beginning to end. I remember the Civil Rights Movement, Vietnam war protests, & more recent efforts for under-served & under-protected people. We marched in San Diego yesterday and my sign said Human Rights For All. Is it enough? Of course not. If Lu less than a drop in the bucket of outrage at the inhumane actions by the current administration. Yet, I am glad that our marches here were peaceful because it left less for the administration to weaponize about this opposition. I will reread your suggested actions and determine which I can add in to support our need to restore balance. Thank you for always being a voice of righteousness.
I am an almost 86 year old ex Catholic. Congregationalist, white, NYC public schooled educated female who remembers vividly the civil rights protests of the 50s and 60s. As a newly minted RN and wife we lived briefly in Maryland in 1960 and there were “Whites only “ drinking fountains and bathrooms and worse, separate hospital wards not airconditioned, behind the main air conditioned hospital. You could see Delaware across the river - a different world. I was stunned as this was not protested or condemned. It just was ! I am thrilled at how far we have come but it was not pretty getting here.

Please keep educating us. We are all created in Gods image and Gods image have so many different attributes. Great job yesterday America.
Speaking up for what you hold dear is not polite ...
Well, Dr. Seuss said it best.
UNLESS SOMEONE LIKE YOU CARES A WHOLE AWFUL LOT
NOTHING IS GOING TO GET BETTER,
IT'S NOT.
Amen
Thank you Rabbi. You are so correct
And like BLM, it was horseshit?
So you're saying black lives don't matter?
Sure. Why not.
