Dr. Elliott Malamet talks with four young and deeply engaged LGBT individuals about how they understand and live with the challenges, tensions and opportunities of encountering Judaism.

A central feature of the modern world is that people often negotiate between multiple identities. Nowhere is this more true than with LGBT Jews, who are learning to integrate their sexual orientations with their religious sensibilities and commitments. In this honest and groundbreaking panel discussion, Dr. Elliott Malamet talks with four young and deeply engaged LGBT individuals about how they understand and live with the challenges, tensions and opportunities of encountering Judaism. Is it possible to balance their authentic sexual identities and their commitment to a tradition that has historically articulated a consistent opposition to the manifestation of that identity? How do they feel about God, about Torah, the halachic system and the Jewish communities in which they are involved? Do not miss this conversation about the complexities of remaining connected to Judaism and true to oneself.
