Episode #26 What is the Orthodox Jewish stance on reproductive rights? With Nomi Kaltmann

Ashamed to Admit

With women's reproductive rights in the United States looking more precarious in the wake of the Trump re-election, Tami and Dash explore Orthodoxy's stance on abortion, family planning, and IVF. Who better to turn to than Melbourne lawyer, Orthodox feminist, an ordained rabbi and mother of four (and soon to be five) Nomi Kaltmann. In this episode, Nomi introduces us to two seminal rabbinic figures Rav Moshe Feinstein and Rabbi Eliezer Waldenberg, and she takes us on a journey through the intersection of Jewish law, modern technology, and women’s autonomy. In doing so, Nomi challenges cultural taboos and reveals the surprisingly nuanced and pragmatic approaches that Orthodoxy and the law in Israel has taken to reproduction.
