Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg — Collective Power

Welcome back to Just For This, a new podcast. Each week, host Rabbi Liz P.G. Hirsch (she/her) interviews women in leadership about women and leadership. Inspired by the story of Esther, we feature powerful stories of women who stand out in their fields, who have stepped up just for this moment.  As we celebrate Thanksgiving this week, we are re-releasing an episode from our first season featuring award-winning author Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg, who spoke with us about accountability, justice, the state of abortion access, and collective power. At the time, we also discussed the Jewish values underpinning an abortion access case before the Supreme Court, Idaho v. United States, which ultimately was dismissed by the Court. Nevertheless, the topic remains extremely relevant as we continue to navigate a post-Roe reality.
