Across the globe our narratives are unique but we share universal human qualities that bind us together and make us responsible for each other. To illustrate this point with a group of rabbis from across the spectrum of Judaism we study.
The passion for social justice is, thankfully, not limited to rabbis. The work of tikkun olam requires partnership between professionals and lay people.
Jewish social action requires us to locate our spiritual power. Anyone can set out to make the world a better place, a friendlier place, a more peaceful or equitable place. As a Jewish leader it is my relationship with God and my people that brings deeper meaning and purpose to my quest for justice.
