Grocery workers in food deserts are paid $7,000 less a year than grocery workers in other parts of the city ($11.04 an hour vs. $14.85 an hour) – an unnecessary economic injustice that pays workers below a living wage. Why are small stores in food deserts inadequate shopping options? While small stores in food deserts often advertise the sale of fruits and vegetables, they tend to offer a limited and sometimes rotting selection. Supermarkets would not only provide better and fresher variety, but would also offer the opportunity of better paying jobs that boost neighborhood economies.</span></p>\n", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "Progressive Jewish Alliance", "featured": 0, "featuredIn": null, "is_public": 1, "is_published": 1, "media": { "image": null, "audio": null, "video": null }, "thumbnail": null, "clip_section": [ { "haggadah_section": "Commentary / Readings", "slug": "commentary-readings" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 231, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Food Desert Plate- Charoset | Passover haggadah by Progressive Jewish Alliance", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

During these troubling times, we stand together at the edge of a rising tide that threatens to overwhelm us - like the Israelites at the shore of the Red Sea, Egyptians closing in behind us, our dreams of freedom so close, yet so far away. We face the dawn of a new era that tests our courage, faith, and convictions. Like the Israelites, we can draw inspiration from Nahshon Ben Aminadav, who was willing to act first and on faith, encouraging all to follow. We invite you to consider the story of Nahshon and discuss during your Seder how you each might be that first Israelite willing to step into this modern Red Sea.</p>\n<p>-Esh Kodesh - Sacred Fire, Torah from the Years of Fury (1939-1942) The Rebbe of Piacezna, Rabbi Kalonymos Kalmish Shapira, Poland (1889-1943)</p>\n<p>We can learn from the fact that the Red Sea did not split for Israel until the whole tribe of Benjamin had jumped in. Nahshon Ben Aminadav went into the water until it rose above his nostrils, as we learn from Midrash. Why was such a leap of faith necessary? When the Jews stood before the sea, God said to Moses, “Why cry to me? Speak to the people and tell them to start walking.” Rashi explains: God said: “The faith that the people have put in Me, in leaving Egypt and following me into the wilderness, is sufficient to merit splitting the Red Sea for them.”</p>\n<p>From this we can learn that moments of great danger and trouble are also times when we are being tested. Can our belief in change redouble and take on yet more strength?</p>\n", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "Progressive Jewish Alliance", "featured": 0, "featuredIn": null, "is_public": 1, "is_published": 1, "media": { "image": null, "audio": null, "video": null }, "thumbnail": null, "clip_section": [ { "haggadah_section": "Commentary / Readings", "slug": "commentary-readings" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 216, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Be the First Into the Red Sea | Passover haggadah by Progressive Jewish Alliance", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.
