Rabbi on the Block
In Solidarity
On the morning of April 28, 1958, a bag of dynamite was discovered at Temple Beth El in Birmingham, Alabama during a series of attacks on Jewish institutions across the South.
Mysteriously, the bomb’s fuse stopped one minute short of detonating, though it set off a ripple effect through the community that would impact how many responded to the Civil Rights Movement.
Amidst another rise in antisemitism and racism today, what can we learn about how those before us practiced allyship and applied their faith traditions to pursue justice?
