Today we have one of our repeatedly talked about friends on our episode, JG! JG not only tells us the origin of their Instagram handle (truly a fantastic story and we want all of you to take part now) but also about a formative identity moment during a Jewish party holiday, and they throw in some Hebrew words for us! They also teach us a lot about Judaism and Jewishness and how that intersects with their queer identity. Be ready with a pen to write down all of the insanely quotable statements JG makes. We learned so so so much and we’re so appreciative of JG sharing so much of themselves, their identity, and queer Jewish spaces with us 🤗 also make sure to check out JG’s book recommendations - When The Moon Was Ours, The Groom Will Keep His Name, The Magic Fish, I Wish You All The Best, Here For It, and Written In The Stars. Go find JG on Instagram at @theroguerecommender, you absolutely need to follow them to continue learning from them (their insta posts? Fantastic). You can also find us at @thebookstagays and on our individual channels @thebookadvocate and @staxsonstaxs 🤗🌈
