The story of Esther is, in part, a script for the holiday of Purim. The Purim festival celebrates hidden identities, humor, and survival. How can we enact more "tactical frivolity" in turbulent times? How do we address the violent themes in Esther's story and our own world? How can we both laugh at power and take peaceful action to subvert it?
