Recent Highlights

The flowering of Judaism has gone hand in hand with the flowering of democracy. Jews have historically suffered where democracy suffers and thrived where democracy thrives. This has been the historical model for hundreds of years. What is happening now in Poland is a replay of conditions that have benefited Jews and Judaism historically. It is exciting to see the interest of non-Jewish Poles in things Jewish. On the Taube Foundation's visit to Poland we literally saw crowds of non-Jews eager to study Judaism. If we can contribute to the rebirth of the Jewish community alongside the rebirth of democracy, this is a very good bet. -DR.
