Listen "Barbara Weinstein — Hope Past Election Day"
Episode Synopsis
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. This week's guest is Barbara Weinstein, Associate Director of the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism and the Director of the Commission on Social Action. The RAC and WRJ are close partners in everything social justice. We go over a post-election debrief, the power of community organizing, and the importance of celebrating incremental policy wins. The episode opens with a post-election prayer. Listeners can join WRJ next spring in Washington at our Social Justice Conference to advocate on behalf of some of the issues mentioned in this episode. Registration opens next month. View the transcript here. If you're enjoying Just For This, be sure to rate and review us wherever you listen to your podcasts.
