We Are in This Together to Survive! Just Do the Right Thing By: Dr. Donald Salem Following over four decades of research and study, it became clear what the real dangers are to our way of life. Anyone who has any stake in our precious society should read this. The first two volumes, We Are in This Together! and We are in This Together, Our Weaknesses Identified, laid the critical groundwork for a clear understanding of why we must strengthen our society for our children and our children’s children. Survival demands participation of many citizens who truly value the benefits of upward mobility, equality before the law, and of exceptionalism seen in the USA and Israel. This is not about perfection but evolution. There is a light at the end of this turbulent tunnel. But there is not an automatic light switch. We are responsible for turning on the light for everyone. In We Are in This Together to Survive! Just Do the Right Thing, Donald Salem uncovers the frozen thinking that has numbed and immobilized us.

Based on extensive fieldwork and interviews, the book examines the origins of Israel’s population policies and how they must change to support a sustainable future.

This book describes my experiences being subjected to and living with abuse during my childhood and early adult years in the Lubavitch-Chabad community, in Brooklyn, New York. I discuss the effects this physical, emotional and psychological abuse had on my development and life, which resulted in my leaving this community and lifestyle. When I grew up in this community, the topic of abuse was either denied, or spoken about in whispers. Generally, even if abuse of a child was known, it was not reported to law enforcement, and the child was not protected from further abuse. The topic of reporting such crimes to the law enforcement authorities, for eventual criminal prosecution, is referred to a...
