Reb Ezra's Bio:
Reb Ezra Weinberg (F97) is a local product and Hampshire graduate. While 
at school he did his Division II and III in Conflict Transformation with 
an emphasis on creating hope and new realities in the Middle East.  
After he graduated he moved to Israel and founded an Urban Kibbutz to 
help further that vision. While in Israel he rediscovered how subversive 
religion is at its core and decided that to lay a spiritual framework on 
his peace-work and decided to become a rabbi.  Leaving Israel, Ezra 
attend the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College for his training where 
he discovered the power of communal prayer to inspire action and 
change.  He was most recently involved with creating the Occupy Rosh 
Hashana service at Occupy Wall Street this year.  He currently lives in 
New York City with his wife and child as a part time rabbi and part time 
stay home Dad.
