In this episode, we hear from Dr. Charles Jacobs and his efforts for almost three decades to free slaves in Africa.
Once named by The Forward as one of America’s top 50 Jewish leaders, Charles Jacobs is a journalist and long-time social activist who over two decades has founded human rights and pro-Israel organizations to deal with unmet challenges. Some of these have become national institutions.
• Americans for Peace and Tolerance — In September of 2008, in response to the threat of Islamic radicalism’s rapid penetration of American society, and the failure of civic and political leaders to deal with the threat, Charles, along with Professor Dennis Hale and Sheikh Ahmed Mansour, founded Americans for Peace and Tolerance. APT works to expose and challenge radical left and radical Islamic campaigns which threaten America and the Jews. APT campaigns have helped rid MIT and Northeastern University of radical campus imams. An anti-Israel “scholar” was demoted at NEU because of an APT video campaign. APT also works cooperatively with the Muslim reform movement.
Charles, who received his doctoral degree in social policy from Harvard, lives with his wife in a suburb of Boston.
