This evening of Tamul study is being organized and facilited by Queer Yeshiva.
Rabbi Leah will be teaching the midnight (11.40pm) session of this night of Talmud study, talks from rabbis and academics about transphobia, its function, and the link between this form of hatred and antisemitism. Maimonides tells us “even though it is a mitzvah to learn both during the day and at night, one gains the majority of wisdom at night”.
Transphobia has reached a fever-pitch in the UK and trans people are struggling to survive. The Jewish community must protect our siblings and educate ourselves: what’s happening and how do we stop it?
