SUMMARY:NYC Trans & Non-Binary Affinity Space feat. Torah from Lexi Kohanski
DESCRIPTION:This fall\, Eshel is excited to be hosting a select number of affinity space programs at the Manhattan JCC. For our first affinity space program\, we are excited to welcome members of the trans and non-binary community for a shiur by Lexi Kohanski: “I Will Live and Proclaim God’s Deeds:” A Judaism of Queer Resilience for Troubled Times” \nPizza and light refreshments to be served. This event is open to attendees 18+. \nAbout the Teacher \nLexi Kohanski is a trans Jewish writer and educator who focuses on empowering those who have not felt at home in Judaism. She is a leader in the realm of trans Torah\, creating Torah study spaces that are intergenerational\, identity-spanning\, and full of joy. Her work has appeared in Gashmius Magazine\, Approaching\, and the Trans Halakha Project\, and she regularly publishes through the T4Torah Patreon. Lexi’s cornerstone halakhic essay\, Be Whole: A Halakhic Approach to Gender and Transition\, lays out a pathbreaking halakhic framework for relating to Jewish gender transition as a sacred undertaking. Lexi gives regular sermons on spiritual resilience and survival through her podcast\, Torah for Trans Lives. She is also the author of Worlds To Come\, a first-of-its-kind tabletop roleplaying game for learning Hebrew. Before finding her calling\, Lexi was an actor\, ESL teacher\, and farmer. Lexi teaches Talmud at SVARA and is Judaism Unbound’s Content and Education Specialist.
