Lori Palatnik: The Heroic and Spiritual Response to Crisis and Tragedy (with Devorah Buxbaum)

Lori Palatnik is the Founding Director of Momentum (formerly JWRP). She is a world-renowned Jewish educator, speaker, writer, and media personality, who has lectured all over the world. Lori has authored four books: Friday Night and Beyond, Gossip, Remember My Soul, and Turn Your Husband Into Your Soul Mate.

In 2014, Lori was named one of the ten “Women to Watch” by Jewish Women International in recognition of her contribution to Jewish women throughout the world. Hadassah named Lori one of the “Most Outstanding Jewish American Women of Our Time” and Izzy included Lori in its “Global Jewish 100” list for moving Jewish culture forward. In 2020, Lori was selected to light the “Diaspora” torch at the national ceremony for Israel’s 72nd Independence Day.

In this episode we discuss the war in Israel and the heroic response of the Jewish people. We also discuss how Jews worldwide should respond to hearing about the atrocities and experiencing the antisemitism that emerged as a result of it.
