ABOUT THIS LECTURE: Purim is a story about the shift from living with a hidden identity to coming out as truly oneself. What might it teach us about the role of clothing, either concealing or expressing gender identity? This text based discussion will frame the Biblical prohibition of wearing mis-gendered clothing as supporting the transgender experience.
