Interesting point. I know so many women who are rabbis (I'm in my late 20s) or studying to become rabbis, so I was like "okay" when I read this. But after reflecting and seeing some of the comments/discussion today, it reminds me how important it is to have a legacy of change. It is important to know the stories, but it is funny how sometimes, even when we don't know that our older relatives or friends were traiblazers, we feel pulled towards changing and shaping our own lives/world. It is powerful to see how the "chutzpah" gene is transmitted, if you will!
