  • Sandra Lawson - Explore identity with this RRC Rabbinic student, who has made a conscious decision to unite her black, Jewish and queer identities as a bridge builder.
  • Isaama Stoll - Talk Torah with this Hebrew Union College rabbinic student, who is gifted at making Torah uniquely relevant and accessible.
