“Our Orthodox Community is Very Often Governed by Shame” – An Interview with Shira Lankin Sheps (15)

July 25, 2018 4:08 pm

We in the Orthodox community are justifiably proud of our emphasis on community. Like all good things, however, this, too, has a dark side: the possibility of people feeling excluded from what often presents itself, or at least sometimes appears, as a community that is insulated from many problems. In this episode of the Orthodox Conundrum, Scott Kahn talks to Shira Lankin Sheps, who is giving voice to women whose problems are often swept under the rug. Through The Layers Project, Shira is allowing issues that some people treat as taboo and a source of shame – such as special needs parenting, infertility, infant loss, dating struggles, and more – to be voiced, normalized, and validated.

The four NFL teams left have, based on population, the 21st (TB), 24th (KC), 31st (Buffalo), and 32nd (GB) largest fan bases. (Even if you count Green Bay as Milwaukee, that's only 29th.)
The NFL can't be overly thrilled.
