"It's very hard to demonize someone you know and care about. It's very easy to objectify someone you know nothing about. We really need each other." Rabbi Steve Leder recently joined Zibby for an Instagram Live conversation to discuss this month's hostilities between Israel and Palestine and how the violence is now manifesting in America. The two discussed the importance of building genuine relationships with those who are different from us as well as why this is an essential lesson to teach children, and why more Americans need to condemn the rising tide of anti-Semitism when they see it.
