also tell it as if we were there!
Heschel argued that this is part
of the very same story: "At the first
conference on religion and race,
the participants were Moses and
Pharaoh ... The outcome of that
summit meeting has not yet come
to an end." (Religion and Race Jan.
14, 1963)
It is, of course, impossible to
separate Jewish involvement in the
Civil Rights Movement from the
fact that its participants either lived
during the Holocaust or were of the
first generation after. Given that,
the statement of faith their actions
made — the idea that society can
and must be made just — and the
courage they showed to attempt
to be those to make that happen,
staring so directly into the face of
hatred and bigotry, is absolutely
awe-inspiring.
They had every reason to be cyni-
cal, self-interested, insular, tribal
even, as many factions of humanity
have become after extreme trauma,
as we witness on the news every

What a story to tell, of those
who stood closer to the unfathom-
able traumas of slavery and the
Holocaust, and became the genera-
tion that marched with Dr. King and
Rabbi Heschel.
Let us have the courage then
to pick up that story. It has not
been told as well in the Jewish
community as it should, especially
during these days of growing anti-
Semitism and other forms of blind
hatred.
If the story stretches back to
Moses and Pharaoh as Heschel
asserts, then let it be our obligation
to tell it in every generation and see
ourselves as continuing the ongoing
process of liberation from slavery
and the Holocaust.
Let us tell the story, not because
we take exception to others' telling
of it but because the story is far
from over. ❑
