Tikkun Olam has been the central driving concept of liberal Judaism for more than a generation—a generation which has seen liberal Judaism shrink as it battles assimilation and apathy, and as it wrestles with its commitment to Israel, to Jewish ritual and to Jewish peoplehood.

Do you agree with this message? Is it time to "say kaddish" for Tikkun Olam?
