From an American Jew in New York

I am an liberal American Jew who lives in New York and who has many family members in Israel. I believe in the Jewish God, but I’m definitely not Orthodox. Nevertheless, I plan to wear a yarmulke every time I go on the subway to show that, in this age of escalating anti-Semitic incidents, I won’t be intimidated. When I’m not on the subway I won’t wear it, but I will wear my hamsa around my neck every single day.
