Feminism, Jews, and the Legacy of Gloria Steinem
After Gloria Steinem’s passing, Yehuda Kurtzer and Judith Rosenbaum reflect on her legacy, Jewish women in feminism, and sustaining social change across generations.
What does it mean to plant seeds for a future you may never see?
Following the death of Gloria Steinem, Yehuda Kurtzer speaks with Judith Rosenbaum, educator, historian, and CEO of the Jewish Women’s Archive, to reflect on Steinem’s legacy, the power of feminism, and the long arc of social change. Together, they explore how Jewish women helped shape the feminist movement, how feminism transformed Jewish life, and why movements must balance urgency with patience. As a new generation inherits this work, they talk about what it takes to sustain change, resist backlash, and build a future beyond one’s own lifetime.
