"Outing" Orthodoxy: Religious, Jewish, Queer Histories and Futures

Austria, Greece, Ukraine, Argentina, Turkey
How do religiously observant Jews understand their queerness in conversation with their religious identity? What is the pull towards Orthodoxy knowing the history and present trends of exclusion? My project will explore crossovers of queerness and Orthodoxy in Jewish social life, culminating in a public facing “archive” of queer Orthodox histories and futures.
