Remembering an Israeli Lawyer Guided by Unwavering

Episode description

In this heartfelt episode of Daily Dive, Adam and Amy pay tribute to Tamar Pelleg-Sryck, a remarkable Israeli lawyer and human rights defender whose life’s work spanned decades in the pursuit of justice for Palestinian prisoners. They reflect on Tamar’s late but resolute start in law at age 61, her unwavering support for detainees in Israeli military courts, and her unshakable commitment to defending human dignity across deeply entrenched divides.

Through stories of her compassionate advocacy—from securing reading materials for prisoners to providing personal encouragement—Adam and Amy examine the legacy Tamar leaves behind. Her work serves as an enduring testament to the power of human connection and resilience, bridging communities and inspiring hope for justice, even in the harshest circumstances.
