    Double Consciousness of Two Prayers

    Readers of our newsletter may be familiar with Joelle Milman, our poet-in-residence of 2022. She wrote a weekly poem in response to the weekly haftarah (prophetic) portion as an ongoing epic. In these poems, she transports us to a surreal world where the character she creates struggles with, for, and against God in direct thematic conversation with the language and story of the weeks’ reading. Joelle reads selections of her work, explains her writing process, and explores her inspirations for it with Rabbi Zach Golden, followed by a Q and A.  Joelle is from LA and lives in Tel Aviv, where she is writing her MA thesis on the mystic element in Mina Loy’s poetry at Hebrew University in Jerusalem. She is joining the team at Breaking the Silence, an Israeli peace advocacy organization.
