Intermarriage and Jewish Society the 21st Century (S1, E20)
from Judaism in the 21st Century · host Steven Labkoff, MD & Rabbi Daniel Cohen
Since I was a boy, intermarriage has weighed large as an issue. Growing up in a Reform Jewish home and living in a mostly Italian American neighborhood, this was always on my parents' minds. Rabbi Daniel Cohen and I discuss the current-day approaches to dealing with intermarriage. And while, in my life, there were layers of guilt and fear associated with this issue. Though today, Rabbi Cohen takes a decidedly objective, pragmatic, and perhaps unexpected view. Join us for this important discussion.
