East Anchorage Book Club with Andrew Gray

Rabbi Abram Goodstein & Reverend Matthew Schultz: progressive clergy

Andrew Gray Season 1 Episode 19

In December 2021, the East Anchorage Book Club held a Zoom event with Rabbi Abram Goodstein of Congregation Beth Shalom and Reverend Matthew Schultz of First Presbyterian Church. These two local progressive clergy co-host a podcast together called “What Divines Us.” After months of holding Zoom events that were not recorded, we experimented with recording this one; however, at the time it was decided that it was too controversial. We discuss the brandishing of the Stars of David at Anchorage Assembly meetings, the Mayor's apologies -- good and bad -- and the propensity of the religious right to follow-the-leader.
