  • Summary

  • A Jew Like Me is a podcast for all of us who love Torah but have felt like we are not fully represented in mainstream Jewish life. We are redefining the generally accepted idea of who a Jew is or what a Jew looks like, especially as Jews of Color or non-Rabbinic Jews. We are the children of Abraham and this podcast is to create our place at the table, let our voices be heard, and celebrate the multiculturalism of Judaism.
