5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific Jewish-feminist resource, Mar 10 1999
By Rachel Barenblat "Velveteen Rabbi" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Women's Haggadah (Paperback)
This book is a must-read for Jewish feminists (or feminist Jews) of all stripes. Broner provides the text of the haggadah from the feminist seder that she created, with friends, several years ago; it can serve as a great set of guidelines for those interested in creating their own feminist seder, or simply in understanding a different perspective on the Passover tradition.

I'm particularly impressed with some of the readings and prayers in Broner's liturgy, which are appropriate to add to a "traditional" seder, if you want to add some women's voices to the men's voices that are traditionally heard.

I spent five years working on, and eventually coordinating, the Feminist Seder at Williams College; Broner's book was an inspiration to me. Good stuff.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a real Haggadah, Mar 12 2010
By Mia - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Women's Haggadah (Paperback)
This may have been a revolutionary document back in the 1970's, but I was looking for a working haggadah, one that had feminist ideology. This was more about the women's movement, and empowerment of women than it was a useful source for adding women-friendly sentiments to modernize a traditional seder.
