Yesterday, I attended the URJ-Greater Chicago Consultation on Conscience, which was also sponsored by the Jewish Council on Urban Affairs (JCUA) and the Social Justice Religious Resource Network (SoJuRN). They tried to pack too much into one day, but, hell, don't we all?
I met Rabbi Marla Feldman, who heads the Social Action Commission for the URJ, and Rabbi Dan Rabeshaw, who is the director of the Great Lakes Region of the URJ. I also might have an internship at the JCUA. That would be awesome, but it will take more coordination and possibly early train rides (6:35 AM).
The workshops were interesting, although I knew most of the stuff already. Danny Siegel's speech was the best. Ziv Tzedakah is great, and he's a humorist, so it works.
We stopped at Kaufman's on the way. They have the best bagels ever. However, they don't make bialys any more. What's up with that?
