JW3: Remona Aly In Conversation with Shoshana Boyd-Gelfand
Two extraordinary leaders, writers and activists, Remona Aly and Shoshana Boyd Gelfand, talk about the issues of the moment and what it means to observe religious traditions under lockdown - Jewish or Muslim. What's it like to celebrate Ramadan and Shavuot without a physical community? Can fasting and feasting be meaningful in isolation?
Remona is a journalist, broadcaster and commentator with a focus on faith, lifestyle and identity. She writes for The Guardian and other media outlets on anything from The Great British Bake Off to burkinis; fashion to interfaith football and Ramadan to rock music. As a commentator on TV and radio, she has appeared on Sky News, ITV and the BBC.
Rabbi Shoshana Boyd Gelfand is Director of JHub, a London-based initiative launched by Pears Foundation that offers space, resources training and development for social change organisations to work, meet and learn.
This is a free event. However, if you would like to make a contribution to support JW3 during this difficult time (which we'd be extremely grateful for!), there is an option to do this when you book.

JW3 & Limmud Present 'It Says What?!?'
JW3 and Limmud partner to bring you unexpected and poignant Jewish wisdom online.
In this 30-minute bite-size series, educators from across the community will share some of their favourite pieces of Jewish wisdom.
This week we'll be talking to Laynie Soloman, a passionate teacher of Jewish text, thought and ritual who believes deeply in the power of Talmud study as a healing and liberatory communal spiritual practice. They serve as a faculty member and Director of National Learning at SVARA: A Traditionally Radical Yeshiva, where they direct SVARA's Teaching Kollel, which is lifting up a new generation of queer & trans bet midrash facilitators.
Laynie is completing a Dual M.A. in Talmud/Rabbinic Literature & Jewish Education at the Jewish Theological Seminary and holds a B.A. in Religious Studies from Goucher College. They love facilitating experiences of Jewish learning that uplift the piously irreverent, queer, and subversive spirit of rabbinic text and theology, and they have taught and lectured on these topics in various community spaces, campuses, and in academic settings. When not in shul or learning Talmud, you can find Laynie reading about liberation theology, collecting comic books, and singing nigunim.
