Disability and the Politics of Healing with Rabbi Julia Belser
Sunday, February 12, 2023 • 21 Sh'vat 5783
9:30 AM - 10:30 AMonline via ZoomThe lame shall leap, and the mute shall sing. In a famous passage from the Bible, the prophet Isaiah imagines the world to come as a world where human bodies are transformed. But what are the social and political implications of these images of heavenly healing, and how do they resonate with contemporary calls for disability pride and disability justice? Rabbi Belser will bring ancient Jewish sources into conversation with contemporary voices from disability communities—and grapple together with questions of disability, difference, and the politics of healing.
