With Election Day rapidly approaching, there are many issues of concern to each voter before they cast their ballot. But the Jewish voter is not monolithic. In each episode of “Behind the Ballot Box: Jewish Values and Our Vote,” Rabbi Jesse Olitzky speaks to rabbis and Jewish communal professionals about a specific issue at stake in this election and why they believe it should be front and center in the minds of voters. Host Rabbi Jesse Olitzky of Congregation Beth El in South Orange, NJ speaks with Rabbi Hilly Haber, Director of Social Justice Organizing and Education at Central Synagogue and a Prison Chaplain and Evie Litwok, Founder and Executive Director of Witness to Mass Incarceration, about our country’s prison systems, justice, mercy, and teshuvah. They discuss what laws have caused us to increase the number of people we imprison in this country, and how November’s election may change the way we rethink our criminal justice system.
