Live! Jew! Girls!
I’m not so online after Sukkot, so I’m posting this early:
Jewish Women Changing America: Cross-Generational Conversations is a conference that’ll be at Barnard Oct 29th (motz”sh) and 30th, featuring yours truly along with folks like Alisa Solomon, Letty Cottin Pogrebin, Judith Plaskow, Judith Hauptman, Irena Klepfisz, Melanie Kaye/Kantrowitz, Rebbetzin Hadassah Gross and my girl Lisa Jervis of Bitch Magazine. It’s free and open to the public, so if you’re in The City, come on by.
Bitch and Jewschool should get married and have lots of babies!
I’ve known this was happening for a while (Hadassah told me about it), but now that I see the program I’m intrigued that there isn’t a single female pulpit rabbi on the list.
No Sandy Eisenberg Sasso, Sally Priesand, Amy Eilberg, Janet Marder, Laura Geller, Lisa Edwards, Ayelet Cohen, Sharon Brous, etc.
If women in the congregational rabbinate hasn’t changed American (and world) Judaism, I don’t know what has….
