In this episode I interview a Melbourne Jewish woman who stands with Palestine and helps us to unpack different Jewish beliefs and misinformation surrounding Jewish people right now. This episode is a really progressive and compassionate discussion that helps us to keep our minds open and stay focussed on the most important goal. A little background on how this episode came to light: I felt that it was important to speak to a Jewish person on this topic and by the ways of the universe, Monday morning I had someone in my inbox tell me about a friend who'd be perfect to bring on. I was the one who offered to keep her identity anonymous if she wanted to, as I knew speaking on this perspective wouldn't be easy. So within an hour of meeting we were on air on Monday, the 27th of November.
