The Ground Beneath My Children's Feet - a podcast by ELI Talks

Home sweet home. Home is safety. Home is comfort. Home is familiar. What happens when you need to flee your home? It's not just the stories of our grandparents that inform a Jewish sensibility about how to treat the refugees and immigrants--our texts and laws have an opinion, too.

Melanie Nezer is Senior Vice President for Public Affairs at HIAS, the global Jewish organization for refugees. She has spent her career as an attorney and advocate representing people who are seeking a chance at a productive future for themselves and their children, in a place where they can be safe and free.
