Good for America, Good for the Jews? – with Dahlia Lithwick (Re-Release)

from TEXTing · host Shalom Hartman Institute

Please take 5 minutes to fill out the TEXTing IRL survey! This episode was originally released on Monday, September 25, 2025. Democracy promises to guarantee freedom and equality for all, yet Jews seem to be increasingly vulnerable in America today. How should Jews respond when they feel democracy is not showing up for them? On this episode of TEXTing IRL, Elana Stein Hain and Slate Senior Editor Dahlia Lithwick turn to Rabbi Moshe Feinstein’s 1984 letter on voting and Rabbi Lauren Holtzblatt’s eulogy for Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg to probe the relationship between Jews and American democracy, especially in moments when the promise of democracy feels unfulfilled or even threatened.
