  • (13) Mamzerim, Part 1
    May 11 2025
    Through a powerful personal story, Rivkah unpacks the painful and often hidden issue of mamzerut—a halachic status branding children as illegitimate and barring them from marrying within the Jewish community. Rivkah outlines the religious and social roots of this stigmatizing label, its devastating impact on families, and its dangerous entanglement with Israel’s divorce system. This is the first of a two-part series on one of Judaism’s most painful and morally fraught challenges. Justice Unbound is made possible by the generous support of the Gimprich Family Foundation. Mentioned in this episode: Mamzerim, Labeled and Erased, edited by Emily D. Bilski and Nurit Jacobs-Yinon. A catalog of articles and pictures of an art exhibition at the Third Jerusalem Biennale for Contemporary Jewish Art, 2017.

  • (12) The Blacklist
    Apr 27 2025
    Rivkah takes us deep into the shadows of Israel’s marriage system to explore the “blacklist”—a secret registry maintained by the Chief Rabbinate that tracks thousands of people prohibited from legally marrying in Israel. From accusations of adultery to the status of mamzerim, we explore who gets listed, how, and why it’s nearly impossible to clear one’s name. Behind closed doors, a quiet bureaucracy decides who may love—and who loses a fundamental right. Justice Unbound is made possible by the generous support of the Gimprich Family Foundation.

    Mar 26 2025
    Too many women find themselves powerless in the face of get refusal or being trapped as an agunah. But halachic prenuptial agreements can change that. Rivkah explains how these agreements use legal and halachic tools to prevent injustice and why every couple--engaged and married--should consider signing one. Find the agreements here.
