Testimony from a Counter-Cult Activist

Last Thursday, I had the zechus of appearing at a hearing before two esteemed non-Lubavitch Rabbonim, Rabbi Dovid Cohen and Rabbi Avraham Twerski, to present testimony about the dangers of the group Call of the Shofar. I would like to share some of the events leading up to that appearance, a description of the hearing, as well as excerpts from my testimony.

Shluchos with Multiples Inspire One Another

Over the 22nd of Shvat weekend there were many different workshops, farbrengens and get-togethers catering to the Shluchos gathered for the Convention. One meet up, though, was different. While many lecturers addressed priority topics, such as those related to chinuch, family, budgeting and a whole lot more, one was missing: Handling multiples.

What I Be Exhibit Comes to Crown Heights

A man with “Shvartze” − Yiddish for “black” and a derogatory term for African Americans − written across his forehead is one of the many startling images in the “What I Be” photography project, portraits of people with their greatest vulnerability written on their face or arm. It is a project of California-based photographer Steve Rosenfield, who in the rest of his professional life photographs rock bands and bar mitzvahs, and is currently in New York shooting images of young Jews.
