Isaiah Women Presents: Who Owns the Western Wall?
Yochi Rappeport will talk about Women of the Wall, a 32-year old feminist organization in Israel. WOW's mission is to achieve equality for women and religious pluralism at the Western Wall in Jerusalem. Yochi will also discuss the monopoly over prayer, the results of Israel's March 23 elections (fourth round of elections in a 2-year span) and the impact of the election results on achieving pluralism at the Western Wall. Yochi Rappeport is the Executive Director of Women of the Wall. She is an Orthodox woman and a feminist, showing that a woman may indeed possess both attributes. Married and the mother of toddler girl, Yochi strives to make Jerusalem and Israel more tolerant places for her daughter’s generation and beyond. OPEN TO ALL.
