This is a sad, tragic and infuriating story of the murder of a 15 year 
old queer boy in California this week that reminds us how important it 
is to educate others and fight against homophobia and transphobia in our 
society beginning at an early age!

"The more deeply immersed I became in the thinking of the prophets, the 
more powerfully it became clear to me what the lives of the prophets 
sought to convey: that morally speaking there is no limit to the concern 
one must feel for the suffering of human beings. It also became clear to 
me that in regard to cruelties committed in the name of a free society, 
some are guilty, all are responsible."

-Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel
