DESCRIPTION:Noted activist and author Rabbi Michael Lerner has been working on 
 Israel/Palestine issues since the eighties. Lerner has doctorates in 
 psychology and philosophy as well as rabbinical training and decades as an 
 activist, all of which he brings to bear in his efforts to help bring peace 
 with justice to Palestine and Israel. Recently his public support of the 
 Goldstone Report (on Israel's Cast Lead attack on Gaza in 2008/09) led to 
 vandalism of his home by fundamentalist zionists. Lerner has often 
 criticized people in the Radical Left movements of anti-Semitism (against 
 Jews).\n\n\nLerner cofounded Tikkun magazine, the Institute of Labor and 
 Mental Health and the Network of Spiritual Progressives. Lerner is head of 
 the Bay Area's Beyt Tikkun congregation. His books include Spirit Matters: 
 Global Healing and the Wisdom of the Soul, The Politics of Meaning, Surplus 
 Powerlessness: The Psychodynamics of Everyday Life and the Psychology of 
 Individual and Social Transformation, Healing Israel/Palestine,  and, most 
 recently, The Left Hand of God: Taking Back Our Country from the Religious 
 Right. He also co-authored Jews and Blacks: Let the Healing Begin with 
 Cornel West. In 2005, Lerner received the King Gandhi Ikeada Community 
 Builders Prize from Morehouse College in Atlanta.\n
