    Fighting rising antisemitism in RI

    Fighting rising antisemitism in RI

    This Friday is the start of the Jewish New Year, and while many will be celebrating with apples and honey, there’s a reality that’s not so sweet. This past year, reports of antisemitism in Rhode Island increased by around 250 percent. Adam Greenman, the president and CEO of the Jewish Alliance of Greater Rhode Island, joins us to talk about this troubling trend and what we can do about it. Tips and ideas?

    Ep 108: A Full Accounting of the Soul

    Ep 108: A Full Accounting of the Soul

    A few days into the new Jewish year, we connect to reflect on what we learned in our Elul offerings, and to offer some lessons about the practice of cheshbon hanefesh, or accounting of the soul. Taking cues from the English word accounting, we play with what it means to have an accurate assessment of our liabilities and our strengths. How can we counter the social conditioning that discourages celebrating progress (and why is it important?)?

    ASK A JEW (38): Rosh Hashanenigans, from Adam Levine to Idi Amin

    Let's party like it's 5783!!

    What's worse: Rosh Hashanah services or New Year's eve in Times Square?  Also, is it Hasidic Jew migration season? Turns out they have some days off where they're allowed to do things, which explains why they are in bloom in city's parks and zoos. It's a beautiful sight.  

    Also: 

    • Cooking for the holidays: a great Rebettzen vs. a Hot Mess.   
    • Chaya Leah is giving you the day off from work.
    • Posting things on your Instagram about Iran is good.
Yael doesn't like a documentary she hasn't watched yet.
    • The Miami Boys Choir
    • Listener feedback about out Orthodox Yeshiva episode (they hated it but love us, that's all that matters)
    • Your hosts share a little mushy towards the end, sweet as honey.

    S4 Ep. 9: Season of Reflection and Repentance

    S4 Ep. 9: Season of Reflection and Repentance
    In this special episode, Rabbi Deborah Waxman, Ph.D and Rabbi Sandra Lawson discuss their respective processes of preparing for the High Holidays. This isn’t about leading services, but about how, as human beings, they undertake an accounting of the soul, leading to repentance for their own actions and forgiveness toward others. The two friends and colleagues delve into Maimonides as interpreted by Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg in her new book On Repentance and Repair. (Among his many contributions, Maimonides, a medieval Torah scholar, philosopher and physician, outlined five steps needed to make true repentance.) Rabbi Sandra describes her difficult relationship with her late mother, and the forgiveness needed to truly care for her mother during illness. The two widen the lens and examine repentance from a societal point of view: how can society account and repent for harms caused to so many groups: Blacks, indigenous Americans, Asian Americans and so on. The two agree that an American reckoning with its troubled legacy is needed. “I think about teshuvah and when it comes to racial justice work, my focus first of all, is primarily within our Jewish spaces,” Lawson says. “I have found that many Jews who benefit from white privilege tend to continue to look outward on racial justice in the larger world, which is fine. But that also needs to be with our own internal work.” Subscribe by Email This podcast is produced by Reconstructing Judaism.
