Shabbos Kestenbaum, Jewish Student Activist

"To me, what makes this most dangerous and nefarious and scary is I was on a panel about two weeks ago with Martin Luther King, Junior's niece, and she reminded me of this great line from her uncle. We will not remember the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. And at Harvard, we would have been lucky to have the silence of our friends, but when you have those in a given society who are at the peak of their intelligence, who are at the the the climax of their their moral and ethical barometers, who are the future leaders of our society, who are the most sophisticated and nuanced and sensitive, when you have those individuals who who see the largest mass of Jews the Holocaust, who see unvarnished evil and terrorism, and their inclination is to side with that evil and terrorism, then I hope you and your listeners can appreciate this is not just a Jewish problem."
