They see clear and painful parallels between their history and the present treatment of undocumented immigrants — and their Jewish identity is compelling them to do something.
Never Again Action is a brand-new movement of young American Jews calling for ICE to be shut down.
My whole life I’ve been told these stories by my community," said one young Jewish activist. "Those alarms are going off in my head.”
