Take One: Pesachim 15 and 16

Today’s Daf Yomi pages, Pesachim 15 and 16, ask a simple and searing question: How much should you sacrifice for your beliefs? It's a particularly poignant one these days, with a majority of Americans recently responding that they were afraid to openly and candidly share their political opinions. Legendary refusnik and former Israeli government minister and head of the Jewish Agency Natan Sharansky joins us, via a clip from a Tablet panel discussion earlier this winter, to talk about what happens when we no longer summon the courage to stand up for what we know is right. What advice might a former prisoner in the gulag offer us in modern-day America? Listen and find out.
