The Jewish social justice movement has been growing, and evolving, in recent years. In a Forward feature about one of its collaborative bodies -- the Jewish Social Justice Round Table, Zeek's Jo Ellen Kaiser takes a look at the Round Table, its successes and the splashes it's making in the broader Jewish communal world.
What's it all about, anyway? JFSJ President Simon Greer explains in this excerpt from the article:
What is the ultimate goal of the Roundtable? Greer suggests there are three: “There’s an internal result, like sharing curricula for staff training; there’s an external result in the Jewish community, to grow the social justice sector so that it is big enough and strong enough and self-aware enough to engage with the Jewish community, and beyond the Jewish community, we hope to re-establish a broader role for Jews in creating change in America.”
