Naftuli Moster: Leaving Haredi Education Activism [Teshuva 5/6]

This series is sponsored by Mira and Daniel Stokar.

In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we speak with Naftuli Moster, a former activist for major changes in Hasidic education, about how and why he changed his understanding of the values imparted by Judaism.

In this episode we discuss:
  • Why did Naftuli stop campaigning for fundamental reform in Hasidic education?
  • Why are Jews often drawn to movements that can be counterproductive to their interests?
  • How did October 7 make Naftuli rethink his relationship with the Jewish world?
Tune in to hear a conversation about finding healthy communities in times when we feel lost.

Interview begins at 25:09.

Naftuli Moster is the founder and CEO of Shtetl, a non-profit media outlet serving as a free press for the Haredi community. He formerly worked with YAFFED, an organization that pushes for reform in Haredi and Hasidic education.
