Re: In the #MeToo Era (Feb. 2)

Shlomo Carlebach is dead and cannot defend himself against his accusers and their allegations, yet his music is being banned and his name declared unspeakable in some synagogues. This points up one of the witch-hunt aspects of the so-calledMeToo movement, i.e. that accused is convicted.

While the court of public opinion is not a court of law, “innocent unless proven guilty” is a worthy principle which we should all remember.
