I said earlier that I do not wear a black fedora on Shabbos, as is usual in many religious Jewish communities. I served as a rabbi in an Orthodox shul in the now “right wing” community of Passaic, NJ. Before serving as rabbi, I attended what was called a Modern Orthodox shul. (No, we did not go swimming on Shabbos). Our members consisted of a mix of older and younger men from different religious backgrounds. But we all respected each other’s right to practice Judaism as they saw fit. As the neighborhood started becoming more right wing, the newcomers became less tolerant of us Modern Orthodoxers. At the time, I did wear a black hat on Shabbos. One Shabbos, as we were walking home from shul, a congregant accused me of being Anti-Israel because I wore a black hat, like the (now) ultra-religious families that were moving into town in great numbers. That was the last Shabbos I ever wore a black hat.
