[Edited extract from public address]

As a young man, Abby attended Yeshiva, completing a rabbinical degree in 2011. In 2015 Abby came out as a woman of trans experience. Since then she has been working to raise support and awareness for trans rights and those leaving ultra-Orthodoxy. 

Abby Stein is a Jewish educator, writer, speaker, and activist who was born and brought up in a Hasidic family of rabbinic descent. Abby is a 10th generation descendant of the Baal Shem Tov – founder of Hasidic Judaism.

Abby’s story has been covered in the New York Times, New York Post, WSJ, New York Magazine, Jewish Daily Forward, Daily Mail, NBC, Vogue, InStyle, and more and she is currently studying gender studies and political science at Columbia University.

Hear Abby speak about her experience - the story of how a brave Jewish woman is striving for self determination, integrity & freedom, amid shifting communal attitudes.
