We initially gathered as a caucus of Jewish Voice for Peace and continue to work in partnership with JVP, but develop our own analyses, priorities, relationships and style of work. You can read our public statements about our purpose, and in support of the Vision for Black Lives, and check out our new blog here.

I am in the early stages of exploring the amazing potential of the sugar palm, a plant that grows best on tropical slopes, among other trees, resists both flood and drought, and provides both low glycemic sugar and ethanol--much more efficiently than sugar cane and without depleting the soil as cane does. It has tremendous possibilities as a source of abundant fuel, and can be planted in among existing crops like coffee, which is vulnerable to climate change and already becoming less productive. My family is looking into the possibility of creating a demonstration project planting sugar pam on our land in Puerto Rico.
