Reb Ezra's Bio:<br>
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. <br>
