For the past few weeks I have been meeting with other members of the Boston Moishe House Community at the Workman's Circle for a class on the history of the Jewish Left. It has been truly inspirational to learn about organized Jewish movements for social change in Europe and the Middle East, while spending quality time with Jewish activists and organizers in the Boston area. Taking this class has remined me of the incredible power of our history, and forces me to ask, where are we going now?
I hear lots of people talk about tikkun olam, but then I look at what the Jewish community is doing and I wonder, are we really making a difference? So, I put it out to you moishenicks, how can we build a movement for social change?
