About the Clergy Council
The Roots clergy council is a growing group of rabbis, priests, ministers and imams from around the world who have come out publicly in support of Roots and do what they can to spread the news and support the work of Roots. Many of them have hosted our speakers at their houses of worship or brought their congregants/students to visit our Dignity Center.

Praise for Roots
“Even as an educator, it is uncommon for my
own prejudices and preconceived notions to
be challenged so dramatically by new
perspectives. And even as a so-called
religious leader, it is uncommon for me to
see such profound evidence of the hand of
God, opening hearts and conquering hatred
and fear.”
“Words can barely express how inspired and moved I was by Hanan and Shadi’s presentation. The work they are doing is truly amazing. The transformation that both of them have gone through – allowing them to have empathy and compassion for each other, as well as trust in each other – is close to miraculous. The members of ROOTS all deserve to win the Nobel Prize. Please invite them to speak in your city; the impact will be huge.”
