Allyship at the Edge: Navigating Difference – with Jacob Feinspan
How can we stay true to our Jewish commitments while remaining active in
movements that don’t always want us there?
In this episode of TEXTing IRL, Elana Stein Hain sits down with Jacob Feinspan, Executive Director of Jews United for Justice, to explore the complex dilemmas raised by the increased normalization of anti-Zionism and antisemitism. Drawing on Maimonides' teachings about friendship, they tackle the nature of coalitions, navigating discomfort and acknowledging red lines, and how to foster relationships when we disagree.
