Keith Runs for Peace

This Sunday I’ll be running the 15k Hot Chocolate Race in Chicago. I ran this race two years ago and had a lot of fun. This year I have decided to run for a cause that is important to me, especially at this moment.

Please join me in supporting Jewish Voice for Peace, a non-profit that has organized some of the largest rallies for peace in the US, advocating for a ceasefire in Gaza. This piece written by my friend and colleague Raffi Magarik provides a thoughtful discussion of the value of calling for ceasefire and seeking peaceful solutions. I find hope in JVP’s vision for bringing Jews and Palestinians together to build a world where all people live in freedom with justice, equality, and dignity.

Thank you for joining me in this cause!
