On Yom HaZikaron, Israel honors its fallen soldiers and victims of terror — and Jewish communities around the world mourn with them. Our tradition teaches that each life is a whole world — and today we remember every world we have lost.
May their memories be for a blessing. 🕯️
This week, we're celebrating Noga Erez — the first Israeli woman to take the Coachella stage. 🇮🇱 🎶

Shabbat Shalom!
This #BlackMaternalHealthWeek, we honor Dr. Janell Green Smith, a midwife who attended 300+ births so Black mothers would never feel alone. Yet she heartbreakingly died this year after giving birth to her first child.

It’s time to end the wage gap. Equal pay now.
