In the 1970s, in the wake of an emerging second-wave feminism, women's magazines were expanding rapidly with a unique style. Their focus, however, tended to exclude minorities. Jewish women were seen as privileged "others", not facing the same constraints as their gentile peers. That's why the Winnipeg-born Susan Weidman Schneider founded Lilith, a Jewish feminist magazine, out of New York City in 1976.

Lilith was radical in many ways, tackling taboo subjects like abortion and gay rights from a female Jewish perspective. Now celebrating its 50th anniversary, Lilith has persevered as a community of literary, engaged and often mature Jewish women, hosting salons and creating a space for Jewish women to express themselves freely. To reflect on its impact, Weidman Schneider joins Phoebe Maltz Bovy on this week's episode of The Jewish Angle.
