RV’s Zine Workshop
RV's Zine Workshop was recorded on Saturday, May 15, 2021 and opinions on events in Israel and Palestine came up in the conversation which you may or may not agree with. This topic is discussed at video timecodes 38:00 and 44:00. We want to make sure that JQT remains a safe queer Jewish space and recognize that there is a spectrum of sentiments on this polarizing topic in the JQT community. So for those who have the spoons and want to opt into learning how to make rad zines while also talking about the I/P conflict, click the picture to watch the full recording.
