In this episode, we sit down with Rabbi Mira Rivera, the first Filipina-American rabbi ordained by The Jewish Theological Seminary. A lifelong seeker, Rabbi Rivera’s journey weaves together movement, spirituality, and activism. From growing up in the Philippines to experiencing a spiritual awakening in India, and dancing in Martha Graham Dance Company, her path led her to explore her faith in many ways and places. Rabbi Rivera shares her challenges working with Jews of Color and engaging in political activism, and reflects on the role of leadership in uncertain times.
