    In this follow-up episode, Rivkah unpacks the legal system that enforces mamzerut in Israel—how laws and state policies conspire to erase biological fathers, deny children their rights, and deepen the pain of already vulnerable families. Through real stories, she exposes the hidden costs of preserving religious fictions at the expense of justice.

    Through a powerful personal story, Rivkah unpacks the painful and often hidden issue of mamzerut—a halachic status branding children as illegitimate and barring them from marrying within the Jewish community. Rivkah outlines the religious and social roots of this stigmatizing label, its devastating impact on families, and its dangerous entanglement with Israel’s divorce system. This is the first of a two-part series on one of Judaism’s most painful and morally fraught challenges. Justice Unbound is made possible by the generous support of the Gimprich Family Foundation. Mentioned in this episode: Mamzerim, Labeled and Erased, edited by Emily D. Bilski and Nurit Jacobs-Yinon.

    (12) The Blacklist
    Apr 27 2025
    Rivkah takes us deep into the shadows of Israel’s marriage system to explore the “blacklist”—a secret registry maintained by the Chief Rabbinate that tracks thousands of people prohibited from legally marrying in Israel. From accusations of adultery to the status of mamzerim, we explore who gets listed, how, and why it’s nearly impossible to clear one’s name. Behind closed doors, a quiet bureaucracy decides who may love—and who loses a fundamental right. Justice Unbound is made possible by the generous support of the Gimprich Family Foundation.
