Plus, the latest on life in the pandemic (as always), and an especially rude week in Israeli politics.
This week’s guest is Shoshanna Keats Jaskoll, cofounder and President of Chochmat Nashim, an organization advocating for Orthodox Jewish women. She speaks with us about how the suicide of prominent writer and accused sexual abuser Chaim Walder has rocked Israel’s haredi community and her and other activists’ work to spread awareness of abuse in the community, as well as the issue of agunot, women whose husbands refuse to grant them a religious divorce, and more.
