Thinking of those Americans who fell in wars that defended democracy and helped free people from oppression. May their memories inspire us to always stand up for human rights and dignity. Wishing you a meaningful Memorial Day

OK, taking a minute from the jokes to say: Sending support to all those who worked at @SpiritAirlines. The home office and a key hub are just minutes from my house and a lot of people are hurting. Thanks to all for doing your best and wishing you a solid future

The area in which I live & work in Broward County, FL was Tequesta land. The Tequesta tribe ceased to exist [a small remnant fled to Cuba in the 18th century] as a result of diseases that came with European settlement, wars, and forced relocation.legendsofamerica.com/tequest…

Rabbi Yosef Weinstock refers to Pesach - #Passover - as the Annual Jewish Storytelling Festival. If you're attending a Seder, remember to connect the Exodus to all stories of personal and national liberations and to be inspired to work towards freedom for all

On the Hebrew calendar, today is the beginning of the month of Nisan, the first month of the year as the Torah counted. The verse "This month shall mark for you the beginning of the months; it shall be the first of the months of the year for you"

indicated that as part of the Exodus from Egypt, the Israelites, for the first time, controlled their time and had achieved freedom. May you find freedom this month from anything that might be enslaving you.

Special greetings for today: Shabbat begins tonight. Most synagogues, schools & organizations continue to provide for the highest level of security possible. You can ignore a false meme going around suggesting people stay away from services.

Thanks to all the security personnel, law enforcement, and volunteers who keep the Jewish community safe (and who are also working with Muslim, Christian, and other faiths to keep them safe). And thanks to all allies and friends that have reached out.

Wishing you a safe and relaxing Shabbat, a time when we can turn off or at least turn down the noise and conflict in our world for this short time.
