I have come to understand that no sect is a monolith.

Daniella Levine Cava, to whom I affectionately refer as “DLC,” made history during this election cycle.

Just as Mattel has expanded Barbie dolls to represent broader diversity, we as a society need to continue working towards equality and representation. Kamala Harris's election is a step in that direction.

Electing a candidate who advocates for reproductive rights for all is just as essential as ensuring women are represented in government.

In order to live up to a name like Judith, we must face our own Holoferneses head on.

My Doc Martens are so much more than just shoes.

“Are you going to read Torah? We think that’s a boy’s mitzvah.”

My Bubbe’s Lion of Judah pin is a reminder for me of my grandmother: a strong, feminist leader.

One day, I hope to walk into an egalitarian Jewish space with my tallit on my shoulders and my kippah on my head.

Joan Nestle opened the door to important conversations about women and sexuality. Contemporary feminist activists must continue them.
