Watch a 13-year-old use his Bar Mitzvah speech to call for equal marriage for gay couples
A 13-year-old Jewish boy has used his Bar Mitzvah speech to call for same-sex couples in his home state of Oregon to be granted the right to marry. The US state currently only recognises same-sex marriages conducted elsewhere.
Watch Duncan McAlpine Sennett take his synagogue with him as he explains why the biblical definition of marriage is nothing like what those who oppose equality say it is.
By the end you’ll be cheering him on like his local Jewish community.
