Professor of Jewish Studies Rabbi Steve Finley gets involved with Shir Shalom Hebrew School in Sonoma. Shir Shalom Hebrew School recently opened to non-Jews to combat antisemitism. The goal is to teach children of other faiths about Judaism in an effort to curb antisemitism, according to Rabbi Steve Finley.
“If we could increase the number of people that have had an opportunity to get to know the Jewish people that just might step up and say, ‘Excuse me, you’re absolutely wrong,’ that’s all we need,” Finley said.
