What are the origins of LGBTQ Pride Month and the pride parade? How does the Jewish community address the concept of “pride?” When have uprisings helped shaped LGBTQ and Jewish communal identity? This interactive, discussion-driven workshop written by Maya Brodkey will address these questions and more.
Students will learn about contemporary LGBTQ Jewish hero R. Sandra Lawson, empathize with the experience of feeling like an outsider, and start to dream about their own innovative Jewish practices.
