Nisan: Passover, and a new understanding of God

It’s Nisan, and that means time for Pesach! You might know it as Passover. With a nod to Charlton Heston and "Prince of Egypt," we'll explore the real story and why it's one of our favorite holidays. Then we'll kibitz with animator and theatre artist Yehuda Jai Husband, who converted to Judaism as an adult. "I didn't really understand God when I was growing up, and I was given a version of God that didn't quite gel with me," he says. His journey to Judaism started at a Jewish funeral, the first time he heard a cantor's voice. "It was life changing." He talks about what it’s like to be a Black queer Jewish dad in Kentucky — and though he's often the only Black person in Jewish spaces and the only Jewish person in Black spaces, he finally feels like he's where he belongs.
