Brooklyn Religious Leaders Try to Diffuse Tensions in the Documentary 'All God's Children' (DOC NYC)

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Nov 20, 2024

Two religious leaders in Brooklyn became concerned about rising tensions between Black and Jewish residents, and try to launch a new effort to create more understanding between the two communities. But that experiment proved more difficult than they imagined. The new documentary "All God's Children" follows Rabbi Rachel Timoner and Reverend Dr. Robert Waterman, and celebrates its world premiere as part of DOC NYC. We speak with the Rabbi and Reverend, along with director Ondi Timoner. 

This segment is guest-hosted by Tiffany Hanssen.
