Avi Yemini is a son of Zephaniah Waks, who was just “Steve Waks” before he fell in with the chassidim fifty years ago. Does Abe Waks sound so foreign?
I don’t especially agree with some things he does and has done, but he’s young and there’s time to make it right. In respect to his activism for the current
cause célèbre, I choose to believe he has an eye on the welfare of others, and is not wholly about self-promotion.
