What is the place of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer Jews in history?
Noam Sienna will answer this question by sharing his insights on “Spinning a Rainbow Thread: Reflections on Writing Queer Jewish History.”
Jewish educator, artist and doctoral candidate Noam Sienna has worked to uncover documents from across the globe. Pulling together varied sources of poetry, literature, midrash and memoir, Sienna created the first anthology of queer Jewish history spinning a complex story about Jewish sexuality and gender across time and space.
