Thank you, Rabbi. Well-argued, passionate, and clear. The question of Which side are you on? is one that not everyone will want to be asked, nor answer, but one which it’s important to keep asking. Silence, which we’re taught may be appropriate when addressing grief, is never correct when facing injustice.
As always, an exceptional and inspiring piece of creative, honest commentary with rich content worth pondering. Count me among the members of "Team J'Accuse!" every time! We are not scattered lone voices crying in the wilderness; together we roar with a sound heard round the world. Time for our own Bastille Day... without the guillotine and bloodshed of course.
And thanks for the link to a translation. My rusty French was not quite up to the task. :)
I agree Rabbi, we don’t want to own the cult but help bring them to light. This resonated with me as I feel the same. Unfortunately not all will see that shining light, but don’t stop trying. Some have deaf ears and just refuse.

Thank you, Mark. I agree that, while the point may seem redundant, it needs to be restated.

Thanks so much, Lauren. I have no idea how they could read those tiny letters in those 19th century newspapers, in any language.
