This week Aaron “The Schmoz” Herman returns to Occupy Wall Street to talk to Daniel Siradsky who created the Occupy Judaism project as part of Occupy Wall Street.
Jewish activists across the United States constructed sukkahs as part of ever-growing Occupy Wall Street movement and to mark the beginning of the Jewish holiday of Sukkot. We had the opportunity to speak with Daniel Sieradski about his initiative to Occupy Judaism and how it is influncing Jews around the world. Daniel has coordinated various events during Occupy Wall Street protest. Over 1,000 people came out to the Kol Nidre service and thousands of people have come by to learn more about Sukkot. Daniel has erected a sukkah to teach people about the holiday.
