“When hatred grows loud, silence is not neutrality – it is abdication. We are commanded to sound the alarm when Jewish life is threatened and to act for the world we hope to see. Our faith has outlasted empires because we never stopped building — first for survival, and then for collective responsibility.
Act now.
Each vote, each word, each act of conscience is how covenant begins again.”
Rabbi Ben Spratt
Senior Rabbi
