ABOUT RAD YIDDISH
Rad Yiddish is a
TkarΓ³n:to/toronto-based and online meet-up of lefties who love to learn Yiddish
together in a supportive environment. Programming ranges from reading
circles and discussions, song workshops, holiday costume parties, games nights,
to film screening watch parties, and more. We especially focus on feminist,
queer, anti-racist, and other anti-oppressive and radical/lefty content.
We strive to be accessible to all levels from
zero previous Yiddish experience to totally fluent. We do this by meeting in
Yiddish-level specific break-out groups that are facilitated by experienced
teachers and cultural organizers. Our events have CART live-captioning and
trilingual English-Yiddish-ASL interpretation whenever possible.
Rad Yiddish events are always free/by-donation
to keep them financially accessible. Therefore, we rely heavily on generous
donations and financial support to fund our innovative Yiddish culture and
heritage work.

ABOUT QUEER YIDDISH CAMP
Queer Yiddish Camp is a space for folks with various
marginalized identities to have a transformative experience learning
Yiddish that is accessible, affordable, reflects and celebrates the full
expression of our identities, and engages with the breadth of Yiddish
history, culture, and activism, which has always included trans and
queer and norm-breaking ancestors.
Queer Yiddish Camp
fosters opportunities for students, teachers, scholars, artists,
activists, and community members, at all points along their Yiddish
journey, to become empowered to grow, and innovate within and expand
upon our radical diasporic queer Yiddish traditions.
Queer Yiddish Camp is co-creating a revolutionary Yiddishland where students, teachers, scholars, artists, activists, and community members are empowered in the traditions of our radical queer diasporist ancestors to learn, teach, co-create, and revolutionize Yiddish. Our events have CART live-captioning and trilingual English-Yiddish-ASL interpretation whenever possible.
We believe in the liberatory potential of reclaiming our radical cultural traditions as a path towards decolonization and a world free from empire.
