“The Judaism of prophetic protest arose as a rebuke to the complacency embodied by mainstream organizational life. In the decade since its emergence, this new Jewish left has almost single-handedly revived and recovered streams of oppositional Jewish politics that had nearly been forgotten — Jewish socialism and anarchism, diasporism and anti-Zionism. At a time when the diminished yet still powerful Jewish establishment has tried to quash almost all criticism of Israel, and when some prominent Jewish organizational leaders have found common cause with the hard right (in America and, of course, in Israel), prophetic protestors have offered an alternative form of Jewish politics in the streets — one committed first and foremost to solidarity with the marginalized and the oppressed.”
