500 Jews and people of conscience are taking a stand in the pouring rain for life and freedom. Our tradition denounces these horrors and demands we cry out against them. Every human being is created B’tselem Elohim, in the divine image. If there is a hungry person, one must feed them. #NotInOurName

Rabbi Rebecca Zimmerman Hornstein and Rabbi Aron Wander declare “We will make the choice every day to not close our hearts to the enormity of the horror.” “We are not here today because we all agree on everything…But we do agree that our tradition teaches the infinite value of sacred life.”

HAPPENING NOW: Hundreds of Jews and allies have gathered outside the Israeli Consulate in Boston to decry the ongoing starvation of Gaza. Our Jewish values compel us to demand a ceasefire. To demand aid be allowed into Gaza. To demand our government stop supporting genocide.

In Jewish time, we are bein hametzarim, between the narrow places. A three week period of communal mourning, a time of reflection and grief during which we reflect on hardship and we yearn for joy and redemption.
