A Spectacular Evening with the Honorable Rachel Freier
With New York City Criminal Court Judge 
The First Chasidic Jewish Woman to Hold Public Office in the U.S.
(Recorded live in Atlanta on October 19, 2021)

She has been named one of the 50 most influential Jewish women in the world. She personifies strong leadership without compromising her Jewish values. Meet the Honorable Judge Rachel (Ruchie) Freier, the first Chasidic Jewish woman to hold public office in United States history.

Rachel Freier is a celebrated New York City Criminal Court judge and one of the founders of Ezras Nashim, an all-female Jewish volunteer E.M.T. ambulance service in Brooklyn that has challenged her community’s conception of the role women can play in public and professional life. She has been the subject of numerous features in The New York Times and was featured in the acclaimed documentary 93Queen. She is a sought-after speaker, and we are privileged to host her.

What were their beliefs? Against whom were they polemicizing? We will learn the underpinnings of this dispute by examining key passages in the scrolls and by searching for contrasts and analogies in rabbinic literature.
