In addition to writing and editing, he has worked as a puppeteer and school music teacher. ==''Jewish Currents''== Bush edits ''Jewish Currents'', an independent, progressive magazine founded in 1946 and promotes Jewish identity as “a counterculture . . . in many ways antithetical to what drives our country today”.〔“Judaism as a Counterculture,” Jewish Currents, September–October 2007〕 :“Throughout the conservative onslaught of the past three decades,” Bush has editorialized in Jewish Currents, “we have argued repeatedly that Jewish identification with the have-nots is more consistent with our people’s history, tradition, self-interest, and prospects for continuity, than the currying of favor with the powers-that-be — especially when those powers resemble nothing more than Pharaoh, the imperial oppressor of Biblical Egypt.”〔“The Tenacity of Jewish Liberalism,” Editorial, Jewish Currents, January–February 2009〕 He is also the editor of the daily blog ''JEWDAYO,'' discussing events from Jewish life and history on the anniversary of their occurrence.〔()〕 In 2011, the entries from the first year of the blog, 2010, were collected into a printed daybook ''Jewdayo''.〔''JEWDAYO: a daily blast of knowledge and pride'' Blue Thread Communications, 2012 ISBN 978-1-934730-94-2〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lawrence Bush」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
