Neutrality in the face of injustice

Adapted from a quote by the South African theologian and religious leader Desmond Tutu. Tutu reminds us that to someone suffering from injustice, neutrality can and will look like taking the side of the oppressor. Two equally real places in which we see individuals trying to remain neutral are in cases of animals abuse and when there are conflicts in other countries. I will speak through my lens as a grandmother of a pitbull and a granddaughter and daughter of Polish Jews, some of whose family have settled in Israel. Led by Rev. Julie-Ann Silberman-Bunn
