Ezra sits down with
Rabbi David Mivasair for a conversation on unlearning, responsibility, and what it means to live out ethical commitments in real time.
They explore
Connecting Gaza, a grassroots mutual aid project started by Rabbi Mivasair that provides direct support to families in Gaza, and reflect on the limits of traditional political advocacy compared to person-to-person action.
The conversation touches on cognitive dissonance, ideological transformation, and the challenge of confronting deeply held beliefs around Zionism, identity, and justice.
They close with a reflection on the tension of celebrating Passover in this moment, and the idea of stepping forward even when the outcome is uncertain.

What is The Thin Veil with Ezra Lipp?
The Thin Veil explores what happens when inherited narratives about history, identity, power, and belonging begin to break down—and what it means to move toward greater moral clarity and alignment in their wake.
Centered around Palestine and anti-Zionism, and rooted in musician/activist Ezra Lipp’s own process of political unlearning later in life, the show features conversations with artists, organizers, and others navigating questions of imperialism, colonization, liberation, and the systems shaping our world.
