Keshet [Rainbow] : LGBTQ Jews

Transcript: "Many of us feel that we can only show one side of ourselves in order to be accepted in Jewish spaces or in BIPOC [definition] spaces or in queer spaces. Keshet is unique in that it rolls out the rainbow carpet for each of us, with the explicit message that we are welcome and wanted in our fullness. In a world where we might otherwise feel that we have to hide parts of ourselves, Keshet not only welcomes each individual as holy but also creates a space where we can come together in celebration of our Judaism, to find our people, to revel in a sense of belonging. I am proud and honored to be a part of Keshet and I cannot wait to see what the future brings."
