Professor Karla Goldman’s op-ed in Lilth asks what will be anticipated from Reform Judaism within the wake of stories of sexual discrimination launched by the Hebrew Union Faculty-Jewish Institute of Faith (HUC) in Cincinnati. Goldman shares her personal private historical past as the primary tenure-track girl school member on the HUC’s Cincinnati campus, and describes her lawsuit in opposition to HUC for wrongful dismissal based mostly on gender bias.
“As a historian of ladies in Reform Judaism, I’ve studied Reform’s very actual dedication to ladies’s development inside Judaism along with its century-long sample of mixing robust rhetoric on feminine equality with a actuality of subordination and exclusion,” writes Goldman. “I knew this tradition and its silencing all too nicely.”
