Family and Friends Shabbat Honoring Rabbi Yael Rapport

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander’s PRIDE Celebration on a gray, rainy night turned out to be anything but gray. Kicked off by the colorful and rousing drag performer Misty Mountains Davenport, we heard from four distinguished honorees, each representing the rich diversity of the greater LGBTQIA+ community. Rabbi Kleinbaum, the last honoree to speak, was riveting. She captured the room as she eloquently and passionately spoke to the universal values and truths of our lives that unite us all—no matter the color of our skin, our gender identities, or our beliefs. To paraphrase, in part: we stand on the shoulders of our ancestors and one day we will become the ancestors for the next generation. She movingly invoked the memory of CBST’s beloved former president and ancestor, Irving Cooperberg, z”l, who in 1983 raised the funds to purchase the building in which we were all assembled. Belief in the possibilities and responsibilities of our generation, as we remember our own ancestors, was a fitting conclusion for a Pride celebration to remember.
