The Fight for Pluralism In Israel
Manage episode 328364227 series 3038572
Israel is the only democratic country in the world where Jews don't have freedom of religion. Think about that. For decades, the conservative and reform movements have been forced to the sidelines in Israel's fight to have a vibrant and diverse Jewish community.
On the front lines of this struggle is Dr. Yizhar Hess, a leader of the Masorti Movement and 10th generation Jerusalemite, and this week, he joins Rabbi Pont to discuss what we as diaspora Jews can do to help the battle for the soul of our homeland.
