Greta's Haftarah

In each generation, prophets arise to speak the truths that must be spoken, whether or not the majority of the population and the powers-that-be are ready to hear. For generations, Jews have been chanting the Haftarah, a message from the Hebrew prophets selected for each Shabbat (Sabbath), to awaken the community to act for love and justice. We present here the powerful words of Greta Thunberg, a prophetess of our times, chanted in the traditional Haftarah melody. Greta’s prophecy-as-Haftarah, as well as a link to her original speech, can be found at thrivingspirit.org/greta.
