Changing Culture

Panel Introduction

Jewish feminists and queers have often provided the most insightful critiques of American and Jewish cultures. Their voices are particularly vibrant in contemporary art, literature and performance, where the possibilities of new communities are boldly imagined in alternative magazines, theaters and social spaces. In this panel, artists, activists and scholars examine not only the purpose and scope of these creative acts, but also their political implications.
