On Repentance and Repair: Making Amends in an Unapologetic World

In this episode of 92NY Talks, join award-winning author Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg for a talk with writer and former child actor Mara Wilson on Ruttenberg’s new book, On Repentance and Repair. Rooted in traditional Jewish wisdom but accessible to anyone, On Repentance and Repair is an intervention in how we talk about healing on every scale — from our personal relationships to systemic inequality. Hear Ruttenberg and Wilson discuss the practical wisdom behind repentance, how Jewish thought can help us better understand how to heal our longstanding wounds, and what we can do to create a culture of care and accountability for all.

The conversation was streamed live as part of The 92nd Street Y, New York's online talks series on February 7th, 2023.
