In this episode of Talk of the Bay, host Meilin Obinata introduces two members of the Tzimtzum Community, which offers Jewish Gatherings for Personal and Collective Liberation. One is the founder Rabbi Chel Mandell, and the other guest is a Jewish educator and is a dedicated member, Ben Yanowitz (who is also a host on The Jewish Diasporist podcast). Learn: what it’s like to start up a new Jewish community in the post-COVID world, how to increase access and inclusivity in Jewish spaces by consciously centering marginalized populations, and why it’s important to create opportunities for understanding leftism within Jewish communities and traditions in the context of Judaism as a cultural practice. This globe-trotting conversation will take you to Krakow, Poland, Palestine, Israel, the United Kingdom and back to the USA. We also touch on fascinating linguistic, historical and religious insights into Jewish life.
