Ep 12: Jews Talk Thanksgiving, Part I The Joyous Justice Podcast

    • Self-Improvement

For Thanksgiving, April and Tracie talk a little about the holiday: the role it's played in Jewish American identity, those who work to make the day special for others, and the joys and pitfalls of getting together with extended family. (Stay tuned next week for more about the racial justice implications of a holiday that celebrates the relationship between European settlers and Native Americans without acknowledging the systemic violence and oppression that characterized much of that relationship.)

Content Warning: In this episode we talk in general terms about emotional and psychological abuse.
