November Clean Speech Campaign: Mindful Speech to Unite and Heal

Starting November 1, members of Jewish communities across North America are invited to participate in the “Clean Speech Challenge.” 

Founded by Rabbi Raphael Leban, executive director of the Jewish Experience in Colorado, the Clean Speech Challenge is a 30-day educational and awareness campaign to strengthen unity and respect within and beyond the Jewish community.

“Over the past decade we experienced a terrible disintegration in civility and public discourse and in our healthy relationships personally,” Leban told the Journal. “The way we speak to each other is both the problem and the solution.”
