Saturday's hostage situation at Congregation Beth Israel in Colleyville, Texas was obviously very upsetting. If you are feeling helpless, here is a list of actions you can take to push back against antisemitism, from the Justice section at The Book of Life blog. https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://jewishbooks.blogspot.com/p/stand-up.html__;!!KGKeukY!iEghfySOZdDBzZ2A4xLswa6j7ITUOov8iK4LKLV8EymxObn-rOPJ9SKARZWB6KTJKcg9oXnP7BWFux8$
Also, if you want to make a donation to Congregation Beth Israel, the URL is https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.congregationbethisrael.org/payment.php__;!!KGKeukY!iEghfySOZdDBzZ2A4xLswa6j7ITUOov8iK4LKLV8EymxObn-rOPJ9SKARZWB6KTJKcg9oXnPHIMo4xs$ . Our AJL pal Susan Kusel is friend with Rabbi Charlies Cytron-Walker, and she donated to the Rabbi's Discretionary fund in honor of Rabbi Charlie Cytron-Walker's extraordinary calmness and bravery, but there are many other funds as well such as the General Fund and Chai Hopes (which go right to the operating budget). Hoping that action can feel empowering, and praying for peace, Heidi Rabinowitz
