Episode Description

Photographer Marnie Salsky joins Zibby to discuss A Peoplehood, Amiut Yehudit, her visually stunning exploration of contemporary Jewish identity. Drawing on over a decade of documentary work in Toronto's Jewish community, Marnie shares how archival images, candid interviews, and present-day photography come together to examine belonging, cultural trauma, and the rising tide of antisemitism.


Zibby also sits down with three prominent American rabbis — Rabbi Amiel Hirsch, Rabbi Yoshi Zweibach, and Rabbi Josh Franklin — for a wide-ranging conversation about Jewish identity, books, and what it means to be Jewish today. Together, they explore the unexpected resurgence of Jewish engagement following October 7th, the challenge of rising antisemitism, and what the Jewish community is ultimately fighting for.
