Executive Officer Sarah Schwartz recently had an op ed published in The Guardian titled “When you first heard me speak against this genocide, you heard my words as betrayal. But they were meant as love”.
An excerpt from the beginning of the piece is below:
To those I have lost – the teachers, mentors, loved ones – who once taught me what it was to be Jewish. Those who once shared my table, yet now sit on the other side of a deep chasm.
I write with hesitation. My words have been twisted before. But silence has become its own wound.
