in 1999, i was invited to deliver the rabbi goldstein memorial annual lecture by the liberal and progressive synagogues in the uk at the famous synagogue. again, this was an event which proved historic and broke the ice between the two communities. after 9/11 i was privileged to be part of the first abraham summit in the washington hebrew congregation and the episcopal bishop at a meal. we visit the houses of worships, universities, think tanks and appeared in main stream media including the bbc. i had the honor of speaking at the holocaust museum in washington, d.c. and found the experience deeply moving. i was also troubled that a lot of people including my own community were not aware this was a national american museum. they thought this was a jewish organization meant to propagate or use false propaganda and people didn't understand that this is something that is american and to my mind should really be compulsory in terms of education especially for the young education. i became a charter member of the adl fed ter rags on mosques which has challenged attacks after 9/11. i worked with t
