>> Have we become firmer than the terra? If Mosher Bainu got off a plane and came into Claire today, would he recognize us? >> We [music] can't just have a relationship with Yiddish that is skin deep or that is based on pressure or that [music] is based on fear and doing the right thing in order to be able to conform to the system, become part of the machine.

We've become very good followers. Is there room for us to be different? We have to take a deep breath for that. I think the [music] most authentic answer I can give to myself and to each and every one of us is >> the the world we live in is really crazy. You you have a front row seat.
