When Does JCRC Speak — and Why?

In this episode, we explain how and why JCRC speaks publicly during moments of crisis and controversy. When statements appear under Jeremy Burton’s name instead of the organization’s, what does that actually mean? Who is the real audience for those comments? How does a coalition of 40 Jewish organizations decide what to say in real time when civic leaders are asking for guidance — and why even speak publicly at all?The conversation explores how JCRC engages civic leaders and institutions, the process behind public comments, and why relationship-building — not public outcry, outrage, and blasting — is the most effective way to advance the interests of the Jewish community in Massachusetts.
