In this episode of Radical Moderation, Rabbi Segal’s friend, activist Thaly Germain, returns to discuss her recent trip to Israel. Thaly relates her experiences in finding both diversity and prejudice on her travels, as well as her experiences in Chevron and Jerusalem. Looking at the Middle East from personal, political, and activist perspectives, Rabbi Segal and Thaly explore the impact of distance on problem-solving, what parties involved in conflict really want, and the health quotient of Raisinets. The books Thaly recommends in this episode are “Just Mercy” by Bryan Stevenson and “Monster Trouble” by Lane Fredrickson.
