What the future holds

Jewish votes in the US election, Black Lives Matter in the Jewish community and the future of gender and Judaism

Associate Professor of American Politics at Tufts University Eitan Hersh joins Hayden in this episode to talk through the Jewish voting patterns in the US election. Madeline Young, Associate Professor of Economics at Anglia Ruskin University and former Director of UK Movement for Reform Judaism, delves into the ways Black Lives Matter is affecting the Jewish community. Rabbi Harvey Belovski shares some high-concept Talmud, we have our usual Israel update from journalist Gilad Halpern and another Bagel Broigus emerges, this time around The Future of Gender and Judaism, featuring Sally Berkovic, Michelle Janes and Rabbi Daniel Lichman.
