From the Beliefs archives: Protest and arrest – Rabbi Rachel Timoner


This week on Beliefs, we revisit a conversation from our first season with Rachel Timoner, Rabbi of Congregation Beth Elohim.

She describes the clarity she feels from what she calls the unfinished business of America. Reparations for slavery, the rights of women to control their bodies, and opposition to xenophobic oppression: all part of the central moral agenda Rabbi Timoner feels is her purpose. 

We’ve brought Rabbi Timoner back this week to revisit her commitment to her ethics, her purpose, and her faith.


 

No paywalls here. Thanks to you.
As an independent nonprofit, RNS believes everyone should have access to coverage of religion that is fair, thoughtful and inclusive. That's why you will never hit a paywall on our site; you can read all the stories and columns you want, free of charge (and we hope you read a lot of them!)

But, of course, producing this journalism carries a high cost, to support the reporters, editors, columnists, and the behind-the-scenes staff that keep this site up and running. That's why we ask that if you can, you consider becoming one of our donors. Any amount helps, and because we're a nonprofit, all of it goes to support our mission: To produce thoughtful, factual coverage of religion that helps you better understand the world. Thank you for reading and supporting RNS.
