Miri Shalem
Come hear Miri speak about life in Bet-Shemesh. As an orthodox woman living in Bet-Shemesh, Miri felt compelled to speak out against the recent acts of discrimination of women in her city, and around Israel.
Miri, along with a few others, organized a grand flash-mob of 250 women. The women, religious and secular, and of all ages, danced together towards change. Miri brings an energetic and vibrant perspective of the religious world in Israel.
