Rabbi David Saperstein: "The destiny of humankind depends on recapturing some of that ability to find common ground" He voiced particular concern about what he sees as diminished bipartisanship and dialogue across lines of difference.

"We’ve lost a lot of that in this hyper-partisanized, divisive atmosphere," he said in a follow-up interview with RNS .

The plight of minorities is often seen by governments through a national security prism.

The religious communities of the world have a profound and urgent contribution to make, Rabbi David Saperstein says.

A failure now is a failure of moral vision and political will, he says, but we're alive at a time where we can make those prophetic dreams of justice and peace real.
