Our goal at Integraliah is for you to learn Hebrew<\/a><\/strong> while connecting to Israeli culture<\/a>. On the occasion of the 31st anniversary of the death of Golda Meir, we would like to give you a taste of what you will learn in our Hebrew<\/a><\/strong> <\/a>course<\/a>. <\/strong>We invite you to discover the story of five exceptional Israeli women – each one of them played key role in building and shaping our Nation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#1 Alice Miller\u2019s fight for women in the IDF<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It has now been 20 years since Alice Miller broke “the wall of gender” by applying to the Israeli Supreme Court her right to become a pilot in the Israeli army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ministry of Defense and the Army initially refused to respond positively to Alice’s request. What was the refusal based on? “Not because she’s a woman,” said Major-General Herzl Bodinger, the Air Force commander at the time, “but because the planned length of service and duties as a reservist are incompatible.\u201d The courts would eventually endorse Alice’s claim, saying that “closing the aviation course to women violates their dignity and degrades them.” Alice was ultimately unable to become a pilot because of health issues, but her fight laid the foundation for gender equality in the IDF and resulted in the opening of fighter positions and other previously male-only roles to women. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Women now account for 34% of all IDF soldiers and perform a multitude of leadership roles in the Army, Navy and Air Force, including combat units. Currently, 88% of all IDF positions are open to female candidates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#2 Adina Bar Shalom revolutionizes the ultra-orthodox world!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Born in 1945 in Jerusalem, Adina Bar Shalom grew up in Egypt where her father, the Rav Ovadia Yosef – who was not yet the leader of Sephardic Judaism – was responsible for the rabbinical court. When the family returned to Israel (when Adina was only six years old), her father demanded that she enters the Ashkenazi Orthodox school network Beit Yaakov. A severe quota limited the number of Sephardic schoolgirls in these elitist schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
