Has Crown Heights Congresswoman Yvette Clarke Permanently Abandoned the Jewish Community?

Op-Ed: Why Did You Make Me Almost Kill You?
If I had hit him, even accidentally, G-d forbid, my life would never be the same. My wife and children would carry that trauma. My livelihood could be destroyed. I would live forever with the image of a child in front of my car.
Op-Ed: Spotify – It’s Not What It Once Was

Op-Ed: Proper Mechitzos Are Necessary In Shul, What About at the Ohel?
In a Shul, we understand that proper Mechitzos are necessary in order to help people focus on their Davening. If that is true in a regular shul, how much more so in a place like the Ohel, where people are trying to reach deep levels of concentration and emotion in their tefillos.
