For many, Jewish thought is expressed through text and text study, while for others text study is used as a barrier between those who are “in the know” and those who are “not.” In this session, we will learn a short text about changemaking together, and explore the ways in which bringing our own lived experiences to the text can illuminate, transform, and bring new life to ancient texts. RebBEE in Residence Micah Buck-Yael will create a space that models and centers the experiences of queer and trans voices in a text study space.
