And if not now, then when? Everyday Life Social Justice with Rabba Dr. Mira Neshama Weil
from Uri L'Tzedek: Orthodox Social Justice · host Uri L'Tzedek
And if not now, then when? Everyday Life Social Justice Social Justice may sometimes feels like remote from our daily lives, as it belonged to heroes or to exceptional circumstances.Yet in Jewish culture it is built in the fabric of everyday. By being commanded to care for the orphan, the widow, the stranger and even our enemy, not only are we invited to look around and do what can be done, including through the smallest gestures or right around the corner. We also are being taught that, as the Pirkei Avot put it so eloquently, "if not now, when"? Drawing from the Chumash, the talmud and example from our everyday lives, we will explore the many ways we can-and often already do-embody Social Justice and can be the change we want to see in the world.Watch the video recording of this class on Uri L’Tzedek’s YouTube channel:youtube.com/channel/UC_htFNr9duz-KJiXdtW8pIw - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -STAY CONNECTED:Website: utzedek.org Newsletter: utzedek.org/subscribeFacebook: facebook.com/uriltzedekYouTube: youtube.com/channel/UC_htFNr9duz-KJiXdtW8pIw Apple Podcasts: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/uri-ltzedek/id1603706369 Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/4sqRoloAYDiI84oFlBd7q4?si=f414b018ae334706Donate: utzedek.org/donate
