And now, the world has a black woman rabbi. Hello?
Alysa Stanton has been ordained (June 6. Mark your calendars) as (mainstream)Judaism's first black woman rabbi, having successfully completed rabbinical training at Hebrew Union College–Jewish Institute of Religion in Cincinnati. This coming Saturday, August first, she will hold the pulpit at Congregation Bayt Shalom in Greenville, N.C. So if your future travels take you to or through the great state of North Carolina and you happen to think you might perchance notice the place tipping...well...you might probably possibly be on to something.
מזל טוב Alysa Stanton! (that's Hebrew for "congratulations")
