I am so proud to be part of the top 10 Reform Jewish moments of 2015.
But I am prouder still that Reform Judaism continues to highlight the support and inclusion of LGBT people with the number one spot the transgender inclusion resolution passed at the URJ Biennial in Orlando and the CCAR’s transgender inclusion resolution in March 2015!
The fact that this still makes headlines tells you how important it is for religious leadership in the area of welcome and inclusion for women, people of color, LGBT people, people who are differently abled and so many more. Reform Judaism and in particular the rabbis highlighted in the list have dedicated their careers to creating a welcoming and inclusive Jewish community, that stands tall for justice not just through words but through action.
