  1. I can now go into Passover with a renewed (or shall we say-new...) sense of freedom, JUSTICE has, and will continue to arrive at long last, not only for myself but those before me, around me, and after me. Thank you for the model seder, it was beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for joining this cause; my cause. AM ECHAD! TOGETHER WE STAND STRONG! FOREVER AS ONE! THIS WILL PASS OVER!
