From Educator to Activist

Since October 7th, Australian educator Sharonne Blum has been on the frontlines on the war of information both in the classroom and on social media. Her courageous approach raises important questions for both the Australian and global Jewish community: Has the role of Jewish educator expanded to include a new layer of responsibility? How do we effectively support students who are becoming increasingly curious about their identity and heritage during this war? This episode was produced by Dina Nusnbaum and Miranda Lapides.
