SUMMARY:Judaism and LGBTQ+ Identity with Rabbi Eger
DESCRIPTION:Rabbi Eger teaches us how to use Jewish sacred texts to advocate for substantive change in Judaism toward LGBTQ+ inclusion and celebration. \nIn this session\, Rabbi Eger addresses critical questions like: \n\nWhat do our core Jewish texts say about LGBTQ+ love and relationships?\nHow has religion historically been weaponized against queer people?\nWhy does it matter?\nIs there space for queer Jews in Judaism?\nHow do we practice concepts like Btzelem Elohim or seeing G-D in each of us?\nWhat does it mean to actualize social justice in today’s world?\n\nWatch here: \n \nA Wider Bridge is proud to co-sponsor this event organized by LAASOK\, the Liberal Beit Midrash\, in addition to other co-sponsors: CCAR Press\, the Central Conference of American Rabbis\, Central Synagogue\, Dayenu: A Jewish Call to Climate Action\, Keeping it Sacred\, Kirva\, Temple Israel of Greater Miami\, Temple of Israel in Wilmington\, North Carolina\, Tzedek Box\, and the the Union for Reform Judaism. \nThis program is part of the “Social Justice in our Texts” Study Series.
