Exploring what it means to come of age in an era marked by
increasing antisemitism, readers see through the eyes of Jewish Gen
Zers how identities are shaped in response to and in defiance of
antisemitism. Using personal experiences, qualitative research, and
the historic moment in which Generation Z is coming of age, Jewish
educator Samantha Vinokor-Meinrath uses antisemitism from both the
political left and the right to explore identity development among
Jewish Generation Zers. With insights from educators, students,
activists, and more, she holds a lens up to current antisemitism
and its impact on the choices and opinions of the next generation
of Jewish leaders. Chapters cover Holocaust education for the final
generation able to speak directly to Holocaust survivors and learn
their stories firsthand; anti-Zionism as a modern manifestation of
antisemitism; and how the realities of 21st-century America have
shaped the modern Jewish experience, ranging from the synagogue
shooting in Pittsburgh to how Generation Zers use social media and
understand diversity. The core of this book is a collection of
stories: of intersectional identity, of minority affiliations, and
of overcoming adversity in order to flourish and thrive. Provides a
comprehensive deep dive into multifaceted manifestations of modern
antisemitism and their impact on the emerging Jewish identities of
Generation Z Explores the common thread of antisemitism through the
lens of Israel, the Holocaust, social media, and racial justice
during a large national uptick in anti-Jewish hatred Offers
personal and research-based perspectives on how antisemitism
impacts the modern American Jewish experience.
While religion and queerness often are viewed as disparate,
scholars in both fields of study share concerns and questions about
how the modern subject, with its attachments to institutions and
communities, is formed. This special issue of GLQ brings together
queer studies and political theology in order to explore the
relationship between the self and politics, theism, and queerness.
Going beyond previous work in queer political theology that has
focused primarily on Christianity, contributors to this issue
consider how queer sexualities appear in other theological
contexts, including articles on astrological, Blackpentecostal,
Thirunangai, hijra, and sarimbavy ways of life, recentering
marginalized and underrepresented minorities, beliefs, and
practices. Contributors Ashon Crawley, Seth Palmer, Vaibhav Saria,
