Beyond the Gender Binary
Hosted By: Jewish Women's Archive
For 50+ years, feminist and trans, nonbinary, and genderqueer thinkers have unsettled one of the foundational beliefs of modern mainstream Western culture: that there exist two sexes, whose physical and psychological characteristics are obvious, knowable, and inherent in the body each person is born with.
In this course, JWA asks: How was the prevailing gender binary constructed? How does it change our understanding of history to bring a Jewish, queer, and trans lens to historical sources? And how can archives expand the current conversation about gender and Judaism?
