  1. I stand with the Black Lives Matter movement, and therefore I would like to also peacefully march in this protest. What’s the halacha regarding taking part in such a march on Shabbas? Any rabbinical insight?

    • Rabbi Rosenfeld is one of the finest and intelligent people in this Town. Ray Coles is a gem. We are lucky to have these people and are grateful to God for sending them to us.

  2. I don’t see a reason that you can’t walk peacefully, as long as you don’t do any issurim and you don’t come from outside the techum…

  3. Simple simon, the published platform of BLM suports the BDS movement. Boycot Divestment Sanction (BDS) is a Pro Palestinian movement that believes that Israel is an apartheid state and calls for the destruction of Israel. It is troubling and tragic that the narrative of BLM has been hyjacked by the likes of Linda Sarsour and Rashida Tlaib.

  4. The organizers should have to put up a 10 or 20 million dollar bond plus pay for extra police, and then maybe they should be allowed, and the minute it gets out of hand it should be dispersed.

  5. BLM,
    Good thing then that this protest wasn’t organized by BLM.
    A few African-Americans who are anti-semites doesn’t mean all are.

  6. How do we explain the large presence of police etc to the children if we’re telling them not to worry. Obviously there is something to worry about if we need so many policemen.
