Episode 303: "Bris" means "Covenant," not "Circumcision" - Lisa Braver Moss, Rebecca Wald, Eliyahu Ungar-Sargon
from Judaism Unbound · host Institute for the Next Jewish Future
Lisa Braver Moss, Rebecca Wald, and Eliyahu Ungar-Sargon are the founding members of B'ruchim's executive board. So what's B'ruchim? It's a recently-launched organization that seeks to foster welcoming spaces for Jewish families who have opted out of the ritual of circumcision. In this episode, the three co-founders join Dan and Lex for a conversation about why their organization exists, how opposition to circumcision can come from a deeply Jewish place, and what it might look like for Jewish communities to explicitly welcome people into their communities independent of their circumcision status.
