Summary
“ Moral Courage ” shares Jewish ideas and conversations — inspired by the works of Rabbi Harold M. Schulweis(z"l) — that make Jewish wisdom more accessible, inclusive and relevant to today’s complicated world. Hosted by Rabbi Ari Averbach . Rabbi Schulweis was a longtime pulpit rabbi at Valley Beth Shalom in Encino, California, from 1970 until his passing in 2014, who made Judaism approachable and accessible. He believed that humanity could do divine work in the world, trying to make it a better place. He was a cofounder of the anti-genocide program Jewish World Watch, and said that Jews have a moral responsibility to help those who are suffering, wherever they are. He was also the founding Chair of the Jewish Foundation for the Righteous, recognizing Christians who saved Jews from the Holocaust. His is a voice that we need now, as the world is fraught, in constant conflict, with suffering and irresponsibility both in abundance.
