Sheryl Sandberg’s Inspiring Message at the General Assembly
During the General Assembly in Washington, D.C., Sheryl Sandberg challenged Jewish leaders to push themselves further. She demonstrated that we can always do more, even when we think we’ve reached our limits.
Sandberg’s experience on October 7, where she witnessed the silence surrounding Hamas’ abuse of women, transformed her perspective. She emphasized the importance of embracing one’s Jewish identity and being proud Zionists.
She encouraged the audience to focus on the positive aspects of being Jewish, such as traditions of charity, knowledge, and community. Sandberg shared a personal story about her daughter’s newfound connection to her Jewish heritage.
Will October 7 be remembered as a day of awakening for global Jewry? Sandberg’s message resonates with the idea of constantly striving to do better and embrace one’s identity with pride.
