Jewish Voices in Constitutional Law with Michael Avi Helfand
Manage episode 492028294 series 3557324
What role have Jews played in shaping America’s constitutional conversation? And how do core American values—like free speech, religious liberty, and anti-discrimination—intersect with Jewish values?
In this special July 4th episode of Jewish Insights with Justin Pines, legal scholar Professor Michael (Avi) Helfand joins us for a powerful exploration of how Jews contribute to—and are shaped by—the American legal system. Avi is the Brenden Mann Foundation Chair in Law and Religion at Pepperdine Caruso School of Law, a visiting professor at Yale Law School, and a leading voice on religious liberty, church-state separation, the balance between anti discrimination laws and free speech, and the Jewish role in public legal discourse.
A timely and thought-provoking conversation for Independence Day—and for anyone who cares about faith, law, and the future of American democracy.
