So sad!! We lost a great hero today! Jane Goodall, you were the greatest advocate for animals ever!! May your work & memory continue to inspire generations to come!!

Would Love To Learn With You!

With Coach Rick Petino at the NY Yankees game!

Here tonight talking about justice with Senator Cory Booker, someone whose moral leadership I admire. @corybooker.com

We're so excited to have just started a robust humanitarian partnership with St. Mary's Food Bank. Our first weekly palettes of food have arrived that we're eager to now take out to the streets!

A hike in the beautiful red rocks of Sedona Arizona God's earth is so beautiful. We must protect & preserve it.

“I became homeless after being addicted to drugs. I’ve sobered up & tried to do better in my life. My next goal is to get my phone and my own apartment. Your team was not only able to help me get some food and cold drinking water. They were able to help me gain some faith that things will be okay!"

Remember in history class when we thought that if we were alive then that we would have acted boldly? We're alive now. What we're doing now is what we would have done then.

Our Humanitarian Outreach Team is heading out to the streets for the day! Please offer us a blessing that we can find the holy people sleeping behind dumpsters, in alleyways, & behind bushes that need us to find them today!!

In the south side of Chicago with this Catholic priest discussing the new Pope’s origins here, our relationships to Jerusalem, & the life of the fine fellow whose funeral he just officiated. Lots of divisions in society but we can find enormous opportunities for building new bridges of understanding

Praying today outside the Department of Homeland Security for a more just & compassionate immigration system! And that we can reignite a robust & healthy discourse in the country & shut down the fear-mongering and violence. May we dream of (& work toward!) a more loving world! Shabbat Shalom!

In the great Salt Lake City, Utah today to see if we can spread (& receive) more light of Torah! Let's keep learning! Have a beautiful day! #jewishutah

Such a unique joy to walk my dogs before & after work each day! If you're considering your first dog, I'd highly recommend adopting from a shelter. You rescue them and then they'll rescue you!

As workplace deaths from heat increase, OSHA will now debate the future of the first federal rules to protect workers from extreme heat. We can't let this administration (and the businesses pushing it) to win out over workers who desperately need protections from very dangerous work conditions.

10 years!! Today marks 10 years since the miracle of my kidney donation!! I remain so grateful to my wife Shoshana who supported me so much (& who also donated her kidney last year!), to my amazing surgeon (Dr. Chin pictured here), & to the Ribbono Shel Olam!!

Out of the Ashes Came Light! We just received a Torah! But not just any Torah but one saved from the ashes in Romania where it was desecrated by the Nazis & it was in terrible shape. It was flown to Israel and refurbished and then brought to the States & last night it was flown here to the desert.

Thank you Rabbi Jack Riemer for this review in @momentmagazine.bsky.social of my new book! momentmag.com/book-review-...

"Police Respond to Attack at a Colorado Event Raising Awareness of Israeli Hostages" Thinking of my friends in Colorado today after another violent terror attack against Jews who were raising awareness of the plight of Israeli hostages held in the tunnels of Gaza. Praying for peace & solidarity!

Wishing comfort to the mourners on this tragic, vile act of antisemitic terror. And wishing strength to fellow Jews, in DC & around the world, who are feeling increasingly less safe tonight.

Just gave my presentation at this international animal advocacy conference & feeling so good about it! So inspiring to be with hundreds of compassionate global leaders who are committing their lives to reducing suffering!

Our humanitarian bus just pulled up to a man who didn't have any socks & shoes. He told us he just walked miles & his feet were so sore & he said he was in desperate need of shoes. We gave him shoes and emotionally he said: "This is just the best thing that has happened to me this year!"

A pregnant Jewish woman (Tze’ela Gez) was just murdered in a terror attack, while on her way to deliver her baby. Wishing her family so much comfort & praying for the survival of her baby who is in critical condition! Also praying for all remaining hostages & for peace for all!

Excited to share that my newest book was just released! You can pick it up here: www.amazon.com/dp/B0F84CGWH...

Missing my wonderful Mom on my second Mother's Day without her here. I remain so deeply grateful for all the love she showed me. Wishing a joyful celebration today to all living mothers & families!

Happy Mother’s Day!!

So blessed to be part of this dream! www.facebook.com/share/15x8Zw...

Here, at our Shower Project, with a new friend from Guatemala who now sleeps on the streets of Mesa, who is benefiting from regular showers and describes them as life-changing. The ultimate dream is to ensure that no one, anywhere, goes without a shower! Shabbat Shalom!

Every day, my great colleague Mike is out in the streets driving one of our "Let's Be Better Humans" buses. Our goal is to find those people that no one can find. To see those who no one can see. To hear those that no one can hear. Thank you Mike for all that you do each day!!

When Shoshana & I donated our kidneys to strangers, we worked closely with Renewal and their support was invaluable. We’ve set up a page to support so more lives can be saved. If you want to donate a kidney, we're here to talk. If not, consider donating here so others can! dryveup.com/renewal/70130

Some of my Reflections on the Legacy of the Pope in The National Catholic Reporter www.ncronline.org/opinion/gues...

Here at the state Capitol with thousands who are marching in protest of cruel policies. It is easy to become numb from the daily headlines of attacks on vulnerable people. We have to find a way to continue bring a voice of conscience to the public sphere. “The people united will never be divided!”

Excited to receive this award from the CJP Youth Philanthropy board & put these funds toward needed supplies in the streets! Much more exciting is to be inspired by teen leaders and by their vision to manifest their Jewish values by ensuring the most vulnerable in our society are seen and valued.

We must keep raising a voice of conscience. Our rabbinic statement was picked up by The Jerusalem Post www.jpost.com/internationa...

Rallying today for immigrant rights. #educationnotdeportation #asylum #RefugeesWelcome

Was just interviewed by @momentmagazine.bsky.social on the question "Do Jews Have a Special Obligation to Hide Migrants or Refugees Who Are in Danger of Deportation?" Here are my thoughts: momentmag.com/jews-obligat...

Yesterday I coached a football team and I was focused on the kids learning to play better that I forgot that it was supposed to be FUN! When I was a kid, I wanted to get better, I wanted to win, and I wanted to be socially accepted. But I was also just looking to have FUN! How could I forget that?

We must never be silent!

Hey Friends in NYC! I'll be the Scholar-in-Residence at Darkhei Noam this coming Shabbos. Hope to see you! www.dnoam.org/sir

Ava Cooper, 10 years old, was born with various heart defects & had her first open-heart surgery when was only 6 days old. Now, while waiting for a heart transplant, she was sad to miss out on her school’s father-daughter dance—so the hospital staff recreated the magic in a hospital for her.

A Holocaust survivor & human rights advocate, Marian Turski, just passed away at age 98. "The 11th Commandment is important: Don't be indifferent," he asserted. "Do not be indifferent when you see historical lies. Do not be indifferent when any minority is discriminated against.

The democracy of Ukraine was attacked by the dictator leading Russia who has killed tens of thousands, injured hundreds of thousands, displaced over 10 million people, & brought chaos to the region. Zelenskyy is a Jewish hero who has continued to defend his people and as an American…

The joys of my life! So amazing to celebrate Amiella’s bat mitzvah this weekend!!

First time as a family we hiked all the way to the top of a mountain! We davened mincha on top, full of gratitude, for our beautiful world & in preparation for Amiella's bat mitzvah this weekend!! Wishing everyone a beautiful day!

Gave a humanitarian award to Pastor Martha Perez & Pastor Cristobal Perez (a power couple!) and enjoyed a night, with their sweet family, honoring their steadfast human rights commitment to serving asylum seekers! Let's keep developing our allyship for justice together!
