Rabbi Marc’s A Dash of Drash – “We all Belong” with Hazan Sabrina Sojourner – Episode 91

Rabbi Marc Soloway April 4, 2019 Jewish Life Comments Off on Rabbi Marc’s A Dash of Drash – “We all Belong” with Hazan Sabrina Sojourner – Episode 91

We all Belong with Special Guest Hazan Sabrina Sojourner is Episode 91 of A Dash of Drash

Hazan Sabrina Sojourner is a spiritual leader, cantor, activist and writer based in Maryland. The Torah in Vayikra (Leviticus) brings the categories of “Tahor” and “Tamei” often translated as “pure” and “impure.” They cannot really be translated adequately and refer to states of being inside and outside, fit and unfit. As a Jew of Color, Sabrina reflects on how these terms can refer to those on the margins; those inside and outside the camp and how, ultimately, we all belong.
