Education
AJWS seeks to make the pursuit of global justice an integral part of American Jewish identity. The organization produces Torah commentaries, holiday resources, curricula and other educational resources. These materials, created in collaboration with rabbi and Jewish educators, are meant to challenge American Jews to think about how Jewish text and tradition can inspire action.

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“As long as learning is connected with earning, as long as certain jobs can only be reached through exams, so long must we take this examination system seriously. If another ladder to employment was contrived, much so-called education would disappear, and no one would be a penny the stupider.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“What does education often do? It makes a straight-cut ditch of a free, meandering brook.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Very likely education does not make very much difference.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
