SUMMARY:Trans Day of Visibility
ORGANIZER;CN="IDEAS":
 about:blank
DESCRIPTION:
 For this year's Trans Day of Visbility, S. Bear 
 Bergman comes to campus to perform his solo show 
 The First Jew in Canada, the story of a young 
 transgender man named Jacques LaFargue set off 
 from France to what is now Quebec City, determined 
 to make for himself a new life. In a world quick 
 to claim that trans identities are a modern phenomenon, 
 Jacques's story stands as a testament to the long, 
 rich history of trans people. This show is not 
 just a recounting of historical facts; it's a 
 Midrash - an exploration of the "whys" and the 
 silences in between. It is a celebration of lineage - 
 or yichus - for those who've been told they have 
 none. The First Jew in Canada is more than just 
 a performance; it's an opportunity to connect 
 with our past, understand our present, and imagine 
 a more inclusive future. Whether you're seeking 
 knowledge, kinship, or simply a compelling story, 
 this event promises to enlighten, engage, and 
 inspire.\n
 \n
 This event enhances spiritual and religious life.\n
 \n
 This is a diversity-related event.\n\n
