Description
Chaya Gilboa is a Talmud teacher, an activist, a flaming redhead, and was – for the last three years – the CEO of the Jerusalem Philanthropic Initiatives, which works with local civil society.

The end song is Anashim Shkufim ("Transparent People") by May Zamosh. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
