For a fascinating interview with the first out transgender employee of an Orthodox institution,

check out "On Being"... Joy Ladin teaches English/poetry at Stern/Yeshiva. Highly recommend for the depth of insightful discussion and tender human interest. Did anyone else happen to catch it?

Krista Tippett is a national treasure, IMO.

I read some of the transcript and will listen to it later today. I'm happy to hear YU/Stern have her on as a professor!
