The "American Birthright" Producer and Star: A Conversation with Becky Tahel

ABOUT THIS EPISODE Becky Tahel grew up in a traditional American-Israeli home. But her sister’s relationship with, and eventual marriage to, a non-Jewish man precipitated a years-long journey to understand her faith, the role of love in Jewish life and ultimately herself. Becky captured her odyssey in a new documentary, “American Birthright,” which follows her travels around the world, and deep within. -------------------- ABOUT THIS PODCAST Jews You Should Know introduces the broader community to interesting and inspiring Jewish men and women making a difference in our world.
