Half the Sky... A Must Read!

I am nearly finished with Half the Sky, a book written by journalists about how so many women around the world are marginalized and suffer... sex trafficking, poor maternal care, abuse, lack of education. The authors share global commentary combined with personal stories that are heart-wrenching, yet optimistic too. Fantastic book filled with amazing people! Although Half the Sky is not a Jewish story, it is undoubtedly a lesson in doing tikkun olam where it is really needed.

What do you do to make a difference? Does serving our own community have the same weight?
