Hamilton is no stranger to the "Liberation Seder," a new way of performing the Passover ritual in solidarity with groups that are oppressed, particularly the Palestinians.
Israel's occupation of Palestine, and the ideologies that justify it, no longer resonate with a growing section of the Jewish and general communities. Equality, and the rights of nations to self-determination, are concepts increasingly difficult to repress and deny.
Rabbi Dr. Lucia Pizarro has been at the forefront of renewing the Jewish faith by transforming its traditions into ceremonies that fight oppression. She describes the Jewish Liberation Theology Institute, and two events in April that the broader community is welcome to participate in.
