The Torah teaches that words are our most powerful tools for social change. Each human being is a world in and of themselves, and words can repair and destroy worlds in the blink of an eye. Our heritage has clearly defined guidelines of how to speak to each other. When we study and practice these guidelines, everything changes.

Last year's unprecedented campaign successfully brought the message of refraining from lashon hara (gossip and slander) to tens of thousands of Coloradans. This year we are pleased to present Clean Speech Colorado Volume 2: The Price of Words. It’s about building people up — rather than tearing them down — and recognizing that what we say and how we say it, can have a cost. This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.
