Rabbis Message Twelve Years a Slave TWELVE YEARS A SLAVE. . . . This year's Oscar for Best Picture went to TWELVE YEARS A SLAVE. The movie is based on the autobiographical account of Solomon Northup, a free black man from Saratoga, NY. A loving husband and father, Solomon played the violin for a living, and was well liked and respected by his employers, neighbors and friends, and deeply loved by his wife and children. In the year 1841, he was lured to dinner on the pre- text of a musical opportunity. Instead, he was drugged and kidnapped by mercenaries, who sold him to southern slave masters. One day he had a nice life; the next day he awoke in chains. During the twelve years that followed, Solomon was subjected to uni- maginable cruelty and abuse. Yet he was determined not only to survive, but to retain his dignity as a human being. And then, by quirk of fate, he met a Canadian abolitionist do- ing some carpentry work on the plantation. The man believed Solomon's story, and contacted Solomon's for- mer employer in Saratoga, NY. After twelve horrific years, Solomon was freed. He returned to his home, and reunited with his wife and children, now parents themselves. A must-see. . . . Every single one of us should see this movie. It is powerfully produced and acted. But even more, it is a sobering reminder to us as Americans of this profoundly shameful chapter in our history, which lasted for some three centuries. It is mind-boggling now to contemplate the fact that the very nation that was founded upon the principles of "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" was the same nation that perpetrated these brutal crimes against humanity, and for so long. And the legacy of racism still lingers. . . . Our own story. . . . We Jews, as a people, have been subjected to cruelty, brutality, exclusion and persecution, often by societies that purported to be enlightened and sophisticated. The formative experience for us, of course, was our people's enslavement in Egypt, and miraculous redemption, as it is recounted in the Torah. Each year on the night of Passover we are commanded to rehearse our story of bondage and redemption as though we ourselves had been slaves in Egypt. It is meant as an instructional story for us. We all know that the "Four Questions" are meant to stimulate interest for our children. But we too are encouraged to ask ques- tions of each other on that night, in order to stimulate our thinking and collective introspection as a people. Yes, we also have had our problems in America, and have had to fight against anti-Semitism and bigotry. Nevertheless, by and large we have enjoyed a level of success here in the United States, intellectually, eco- nomically, culturally and politically, that is unprecedented in history. Jews without America, and America without Jews, are both unthinkable equations. American Jews have been in the forefront of every major move- ment of social and political change. In no small measure, this is due to our having so thoroughly internalized and embraced the message of Passover. Whether or not we interpret the miracles as literal occurrences is im- material. The point is the instructional value of the story for us as our sacred history. The texts of the Torah and Haggadah are meant to remind us that because we as a people have known brutality and abuse, deprivation and oppression, we above all should stand up in the world to help other human beings who are now oppressed, whatever their religion, color, gender, sexual orientation, or age. In our own time we have inherited an addi- tional mission - the mission of "never again." But "never again" cannot mean "for Jews only." To mean any- thing at all it must mean never again for any child of God. Bound together. . . . The close ties between the Jewish and African American communities have been fos- tered by the commonalities of our historic experiences, and our religious beliefs and sensibilities. Our com- munities built a strong relationship in this country. No doubt that relationship has been tested from time to (Continued on page 3)
On Friday, February 28, 2014, a man most of us dont remember passed away in Toronto, Canada, at age 98. Lee Lorch was a civil rights activist who took a stand against the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. The corporate giant and owner of Stuyvesant Town in Manhattan had a policy of excluding blacks from the hous- ing complex. Lorch, a college math teacher, had landed an apartment there two years after returning home from WWII. In 1949, he invited a black family to live in his apartment which precipitated a fight with MetLife and caused his employer, Penn State University, to deny him reappointment. Eventually his activism for civil liberties sacrificed his academic career in the United States (no college would hire him) in 1959, Lee and his family moved to Canada. Indirectly, the activism led to the Fair Housing Act of 1968, prohibiting discrimina- tion in housing. This courageous man made a difference because he was willing to risk a career for his hu- manitarian principles. Through the ages, the Jewish people have had such leaders whose exploits we celebrate at our festivals Mor- decai (Purim) and the upcoming Passover where Moses leads his followers out of bondage from Egypt. Moses is put to the test when he sees the Jews lose faith and build a Golden Calf as an idol. Luckily, God reassures him and says, Take these two tablets and call me in the morning. So you too can make a difference at Union Temple. Offer your special talents to our members and by all means attend our Annual Meeting on Sunday, May 11th we intend to make it a fun-filled event. -Leonard Shiller, Treasurer Officers Column You Can Make A Difference 3 time. But it is our responsibility to keep it alive, not only because of our past, but because of the task that yet lies before us. The ultimate message of Passover is our messianic vision of a world of justice, compassion, and peace. When we pose questions to each other and generate our conversations at our Sedarim this coming Passover, let's remember to direct at least a portion of our thoughts to that message. From house to house, A Ziessen Pesach. -Rabbi Linda Henry Goodman Please Remember the Passover Appeal I hope you will contribute to the New York Board of Rabbis Annual Passover Appeal on behalf of tens of thousands of our fellow New Yorkers who are in need.

The Brotherhood Shabbat took place in early March and it was a wonderful success. Brotherhood mem- bers led the service by performing many of the rituals and prayers of the service. The highlight was most certainly the chanting of the weekly Torah parsha by Brotherhood President Steven Segall. Steven has been practicing for quite a while and did a terrific job. A delicious lunch was enjoyed by all after the service. We would like to thank Rabbi Goodman and Student Cantor Emma Goldin for their great help with the preparations. A Ziessen Pesach to everyone from the Brotherhood. -David Rapheal, Secretary Brotherhood Brotherhood Shabbat a Big Success Putting the L in LGBT, UT June movie night: Aime & Jaguar Wednesday, June 18, 2014 Refreshments: 7 pm Screening: 7:15 - 9:30 pm, 3 rd Floor Aime & Jaguar was made in 1998 and is in German with English subtitles. Based on a true story about two women who fall in love in Germany during WWII in 1943 Berlin. Lilly (aka Aime) is a married woman, mother of four sons, and an exemplar of Nazi mother- hood. For her, this affair will be the most deci- sive experience of her life. For the other woman, Felice (aka Jaguar) a Jewess and member of the underground, their love fuels her with the hope that she will survive. A half-century later, Lilly Wust told her incredi- ble story to writer Erica Fischer, and the book, Aime & Jaguar, first published in 1994 imme- diately became a bestseller and has since been translated into eleven languages. Max Frberbck's debut film, based on Fischer's book, is the true story of this extraordinary re- lationship. The film was nominated for a 1999 Golden Globe Award and was Germany's sub- mission for the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar. Both actresses received Silver Bears at the 1999 Berlin International Film Festival for their portrayals of "Aime" and "Jaguar". This is a program not to be missed! Please make sure to RSVP the Temple of- fice uniontemple@uniontemple.org to se- cure your first come, first served atten- dance (no charge). Fourth Friday Shabbat, April 25 Guest Speaker: Dr. Chad Goldberg, Professor of Sociology, University of Wisconsin-Madison Dr. Goldberg will speak on: Between Two Worlds: Jews and Modernity in the Chicago School of Sociology, 1910s to 1930s. Chad Alan Goldberg received his Ph.D. from the New School for Social Re- search in 2002 and is now a professor of sociology at the University of Wis- consin-Madison. This year he is a Dis- tinguished Visiting Fellow at the Ad- vanced Research Collaborative at the City Univer- sity of New York Graduate Center. His areas of specialization include comparative-historical sociol- ogy, political sociology, and social theory. His first book, Citizens and Paupers: Relief, Rights, and Race, from the Freedmens Bureau to Workfare, shows how social spending policies have been an important site for political struggles over the boundaries and rights of American citizenship. It won the Outstanding Book Award from the Theory Division of the Society for the Study of Social Prob- lems in 2010 and received Honorable Mention for the Barrington Moore Book Award from the Com- parative and Historical Sociology Section of the American Sociological Association in 2010. He is currently completing a new book that compares the portrayal of Jews and Judaism in French, German, and American social theory from the mid- nineteenth to early twentieth centuries. 7:00 PM: Dinner (RSVP $10pp) 8:00 PM: Shabbat Service 9:00 PM: Oneg and Presentation 6
When I think of Passover, I think of all of the Passover Seders we had in the master bedroom. Thats right in the master bedroom. In my house growing our average Seder had about 50 people. My parents thought it was important for everyone to have a place to go for the Passover Seder. We usually ended up with 50 people both nights. In our house the bedrooms were larger than the dining room and family room, so we would have Pass- over Seder in the master bedroom, were all 50 people could fit comfortably. Passover is a time for families and friends to come together and celebrate freedom. In my house that was Seder in the bedroom. What does it mean for your family? I encour- age you to create a new tradition this year. For help creating that tra- dition check out the URJ website: http://www.reformjudaism.org/ jewish-holidays/passover. I want to wish everyone a Chag Sameach! -Mindy Sherry, Director of Youth and Family Engagement

Our fours classes, The Hummingbirds and the Puffins, were very busy during the month of March. Both classes have been engaged in a study of different artists in conjunction with our Brooklyn Museum program. After visiting the Mickalene Thomas exhibit which is currently on display at the Brooklyn Museum, our museum educator, Brigitte, kicked off the unit with a special project. The students cre- ated colorful collages inspired by the work of Mickalene Thomas using pictures cut out of magazines, glitter and jew- els. They went on to study Jackson Pollock and made a huge dripped paint mural. For their study of Keith Haring, the children made life size Haring inspired figures in motion. The children outlined each figure with a painted black line, Their fine motor development over the course of the year was evident in the precision of their carefully drawn lines.. They also made mobiles out of pipe cleaners, and foam shapes in the spirit of Alexander Calder and an Andy Warhol inspired picture composed of four black and white copies of photos of their faces which they added color to. The children then talked about Pablo Picasso and the different periods of his career. They painted blue paintings and captioned them what makes me sad is They also made Picasso inspired self- portraits using as their base a juxtaposed full face and profile pic- ture of themselves. The culminating event of the unit was a Caf/Gallery. Parents were invited in to view all of their art work as they were served bagels by their very own budding artists. With the close of the very rich artists unit the fours turned their attention to the 100th day of school and an- other huge celebration. In preparation for the day each child made a 100 day hat decorated with 100 dots. They stacked 100 plastic cups, counted 100unifix cubes, and talked about what they would buy if they had $100. One of the students said, I would buy a real pig! I would put it in the bathtub when it rolls in mud. They also painted a huge paper pizza and decorated it with 100 toppings. That was followed by a real pizza lunch. The 100th day of school is always a highlight of the school year. We are already looking forward to summer and planning for our summer program. We offer a 7 week program that runs June 16- August 1. The program is open to 3-5 year olds.

April at last! After a long, harsh winter, spring is finally here, and with it our joyous holiday of Passover. En- joy every moment of it with family and friends, and don't be sad as you sweep up the last of those matzo crumbs, for Sisterhood has something very special in store for you at the beginning of May. Join us Sunday, May 5, 2014, for an extraordinary Rosh Chodesh Iyar. Iyar is known as the month of healing, so it is especially meaningful that our own Faye White-Willinger will discuss the essentials of first aid with us and demonstrate CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation), even helping a few of us have a go at it on manikins. A registered nurse, Faye earned her Bachelor of Science in nursing at the University of Pennsylvania and is a cer- tified instructor in CPR and first aid. She has spent twenty years in corporate nursing, and was on the scene and helped her co-workers cope with the trauma of 9/11. So bring your mother, your sisters, your friends, and be with us for this morning of camaraderie, good food, and sharing of vital information. You'll leave happy, well fed, and prepared for the emergencies that all of us pray will never happen, but that, unfortunately, fre- quently do. Sisterhood wishes everyone a Ziessen Pesach. May the sweet joy of this season touch every heart and every home. -Barbara Brett, Secretary Sisterhood A Month of Healing Mazal Tov to our Bat Mitzvah Ilana Schachter Daughter of Stephanie Steinberg and Daniel Schachter
