Author Lawrence Bush on the marriage of two once-feuding Yiddishist organizations

Writing in the Forward, Lawrence Bush writes aboutOnce-feuding Blood Relatives, United in a Marriage of Ideals, referring to merger of the Morning Freiheit Association and the Workmen's Circle/Arbeter Ring:
Yiddishkayt, and the entire Jewish tradition at its best, is essentially a centuries-long discussion of how human beings can best live together in peace and with maximum authenticity. It is that discussion that constitutes the pillow talk of our newly married organizations.
