In this special live episode recorded at the 92nd Street Y, we sit down with Jay Michaelson—writer, rabbi, journalist, scholar, meditation teacher, and LGBTQ activist. Jay shares how his life has been shaped by the interplay of seemingly opposing identities and disciplines. From either/or to both/and. From work in the Jewish and LGBT communities to teaching about law and psychedelics, Jay reflects on walking the line between structure and liberation, tradition and transformation. We talk religion, justice, mysticism, and meaning—and what it takes to hold complexity in today’s fractured world.
