By Forward Staff April 30, 2013

Is an egalitarian section the best solution for the Kotel? That’s one of many questions that editor-in-chief Jane Eisner and Change the Ratio founder Rachel Sklar discuss on the latest episode of The Salon on the Jewish Channel. Watch it below, and click here for more discussions about the morning after pill, Margaret Thatcher’s legacy and California attorney general Kamala Harris’ looks.

This episode features writer and performer Judy Batalion; Rabbi Jacqueline Koch Ellenson, Director of the Women’s Rabbinic Network, and freelance writer Dvora Meyers, author of Heresy on the High Beam: Confessions of an Unbalanced Jewess.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.

The coming year promises to be filled with more complex and historic developments. We are entering an era where independent, fact-based Jewish journalism will be more important than ever. We need to be ready for whatever 2025 will bring, and with your help, we can be.

We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.
