Women in the Orthodox Synagogue| London's Yehudis Fletcher
In this thought-provoking episode, Rabbi Elchanan Poupko sits down with Yehudis Fletcher, a political and social activist from London and co-founder of Nahamu, an organization dedicated to combating extremism. Together, they explore the evolving role of Women in the Orthodox Synagogue, addressing challenges, progress, and the ways tradition and modernity intersect in Jewish communal life.
The conversation also delves into the life and legacy of Sarah Schenirer, the visionary founder of the Bais Yaakov movement, whose pioneering efforts transformed Jewish education for women. How did Schenirer’s work shape the status of women in Orthodox communities? What lessons can be drawn from her impact today?
