Duncan's Bar Mitzvah - A Call for Freedom to Marry



Nov 26, 2013

On November 9, 2013, Duncan McAlpine Sennett became a Bar Mitzvah at Congregation Beth Israel in Portland, Oregon.

During this important rite of passage for a Jewish 13 year old, the Bar Mitzvah gives a speech or "D'var Torah" relating the biblical text to their own lives and passions.

Duncan used this time to speak about an issue he cares deeply about. . .after hearing his message, you will, too.

Carl Wolfson played a portion of Duncan's speech on his BlogTalkRadio show awhile back, and Lawrence O'Donnell interviewed him as well.

Well done, Duncan. You give me hope for the future!

Blessings.
