Description - Righteous Indignation by Or N. Rose

For the first time, and in time for the 2008 election season, the voices of leading progressive Jewish activists are gathered together in one groundbreaking volume as they seek meaningful intellectual and spiritual foundations upon which to base their social justice work. This important collection features broad discussions of the historical, political and theological dimensions of Jewish justice work. It, also, includes commentary on specific contemporary issues such as poverty, genocide, gay rights, stem cell research, and the environment. Informed by spirited activists, intellectuals and religious leaders, this provocative book will: * Articulate progressive Jewish positions on key contemporary issues that draw on traditional and modern thinking * Motivate Jewish communities to take action by demonstrating to readers the importance of activism and community organising in Jewish life * Help reorient the contemporary discourse on religion and politics in the world today
