"My childhood as a Hasidic boy" | In Conversation with Izzy Posen

UPDATE: After we filmed this segment, as I was about to share it, Izzy's young mother passed away in a tragic car accident. I am so heartbroken for Izzy and his terrible loss. He has been writing on his twitter and his website about his grief for his mother and he shared a few words about her in this updated version. She was such a loving and wonderful woman. If you'd like to read more of Izzy's writing on grief and his complicated family relationship, go here:

A conversation with the wonderful ‪@izzyposen2092‬ about his education as a Hasidic boy. Hasidic boys have very different types of schooling than girls, and here Izzy shares his at times horrifying, at times fascinating, experience in the Hasidic education system.
