David Waren Quotations

It is not very often that rallies of the size we are talking about take place in Washington. This will be a major initiative and will send a very important message to our elected officials and diplomats that the Jewish community and other faith-based organizations and civil rights groups will not sit idly by this time with this genocide. Time is really running out, so it is important to galvanize and to send a strong message.

We are shocked and outraged by the nature and magnitude of this vandalism. Hate crimes like this one have the potential to polarize a school community and lead members of the targeted community to feel marginalized and insecure.

It's not the ideal bill for us, but we believe it will make a material difference.

It must be shown that something that is already criminal was motivated by bigotry or bias because of, in this case, racial factors.

The measure of a community is not whether these things happen, it's how they respond.
