OUR INSPIRATION ELI AYALOn
Spill the Honey was inspired by the story of Eliezer Ayalon, a Holocaust survivor, who is a model of recovering from trauma to become a messenger of hope. The non-profit takes its name from his storyāhe was gifted a cup of honey from his mother the final day she would see him before being sent by the Nazis to five concentration camps. He came to understand the power of using his voice and telling his story to inspire others to not remain silent in the face of hate and dehumanization, while healing himself in the process. Throughout his life Dr. King, used his voice and strength to fight for human rights and equality. He spoke of the history of slavery and oppression in this country in order to awaken and mobilize Americaās consciousness. The Black and Jewish leaders of the Civil Rights movement, including our own Dr. Clarence B. Jones, taught us the power of sharing our stories, using our collective voices and reminds us of the power of our alliances in bringing about that change. The honey symbolizes hope and survival.

NO MORE SILENCE
Two Women. One Shared Legacy.
One Movement.
For years, Dr. Shari Rogers, founder of Spill the Honey, has dedicated her life to educating people about the historic partnership between Black and Jewish communities. Through the acclaimed documentary Shared Legacies, educational programming, and community engagement, she has become one of the leading voices preserving this important history.
ā
When Atlanta civic leader Sherry Frank—a longtime friend of Congressman John Lewis and Coretta Scott King—introduced Dr. Rogers to Mali Wilson, a Grammy-nominated producer, film composer, recording artist, and a woman of both Jewish and African American heritage, the connection was immediate.
Together, they discovered they shared the same belief: history should not simply be remembered—it should be lived.
ā
Their collaboration led to the creation of “No More Silence,” written by Dr. Shari Rogers, Mali Wilson, Eric D. Wilson, and Craig J. Snider.
ā
For the past four years, Dr. Rogers and Mali have shared the anthem at events connected with the United Nations Peace in the Park in New York’s Central Park, Morehouse College, the Billie Holiday Theatre, and community gatherings dedicated to education, healing, and unity.
ā
Today, they are inviting the world to help carry that message even further.
