On Friday, SCOTUS issued an order by Justice Sonia Sotomayor that allows Yeshiva University in New York to refuse to recognize an LGBTQ club for students. In this episode of Identity/Crisis hosted by Yehuda Kurtzer, guests Miryam Kabakov, Executive Director and Co-founder of Eshel, and award-winning writer and Rabbi, Steve Greenberg, discuss the case and the unfolding process through which conservative religious communities, such as Orthodox Judaism, define the norms of that community.
