This is the video recap of the 15th annual Jews For Racial and Economic Justice (JFREJ) Rabbi Marshal T. Meyer Risk Taker Awards, held on Tuesday, December 13th at B’nai Jeshurun in New York City. This was an amazing event. I’m so glad I was there that night, and so proud to be a long-time member of JFREJ.
Last year I completed a M.A. in International Human Rights. I'm interested in the praxis of human rights, the role of social justice movements and the value of tikkun olam to make the world a better place. I am also interested in international development, humanitarian aid, social justice movements, politics, economics, community organizing and the values of deep and direct democracy. As a queer Jew I care about certain issues, but I strive to push discourse and work for real, meaningful, and lasting progressive change.
