The piece chastised the Australian Jewish communities for demonstrating empathy toward those seeking refuge in the country. In response, the Australian Jewish Democratic Society (AJDS) initiated an open letter to Magid. Malcah spoke with Jordy Silverstein, an executive member of the AJDS to learn more about the debate taking place.radio613 collectiveFri, 24 Aug 2012 12:30:12 +0000
