looking for something authentic

From today's WSJ, in an article on Chabad campus outreach:

Rabbi Seligson agrees with progressives that the less involved “want something different.” But they aren’t looking for a watered-down Judaism. “They’re looking for something authentic,” he says. “The minute you have to go outside of Judaism to answer their questions, you’ve lost them. They don’t need a rabbi for something that’s not Jewish.”

That’s how I felt at Stanford, when on Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the year, a campus rabbi sermonized in support of Black Lives Matter. Everywhere at university, one could find opportunities for political commitment and therapeutic affirmation. But Chabad seemed like it might have wisdom.
