As debates continue to rage in Israel over issues like judicial reform and military exemptions for ultra-Orthodox Jews, it's important to understand the perspectives of all communities in Israeli society. That's why we're excited to have Ashira Solomon, host of The Black and Jewish Podcast and co-host of The Quad, join us to share her insights.

Ashira brings a unique perspective as an African American Jewish woman living in Israel.

Tune in as Ashira shares fascinating details about this little-known part of the Israeli military.

Then, Ashira shares her personal experiences navigating identity as a Black Jewish woman in both Israel and the U.S. She also provides an insider's view on the key political debates happening in Israel today and efforts to amplify women's voices in Israeli politics and diplomacy.

In this episode of the Cut to the Chase: Podcast, Gregg and Ashira discuss:

- The special IDF unit recruiting from Ashira's community

- Combating anti-Semitic rhetoric from certain U.S. politicians

- The need for more women leaders in Israeli politics

- Shifts in Israeli public opinion on U.S. support

- Impact of indoctrination on Arab-Israeli relations

- Prospects for eventual peace despite current challenges

 

Key Takeaways for Law Firms:
