Listen "Shelly Tal Meron — Weapons of War"
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. Content warning: this episode mentions instances of sexual violence and rape. This week's guest is Knesset member Shelly Tal Meron. MK Tal Meron started the Hostage Family lobby following October 7 in Israel and continues to advocate for the return of the hostages and bring light to the sexual violence that has persisted since the beginning of the war. We discuss sexual violence used as a weapon of war and the importance of bringing women to decision-making tables. View the transcript here.
