We are so excited to share with you our ninth episode, a deeper look at #TransTorah, and looking at what it means to break out of boxes while breaking down binaries. Join RRC rabbinical student Koach Baruch Frazier and Wash-U MSW student Sierra Jay Debrow—because they’re brilliant, beautiful, and flabbergastingly funny. We also welcome third-year HUC-JIR cantorial student Kalix Jacobson to the show. Hebrew translations below!
