Pride In The Living Room is one of The Aguda’s most influential projects. It was brought to life in light of terrible attacks against the Israeli LGBTQ community.
Some of these events include the deadly shooting at the TLV Gay Youth Center (Bar Hanoar) and the treacherous stabbing event at the Jerusalem Pride parade in which 16 year old Shira Banki was killed.
As part of this project, in the first week of august – at the same day when Shira Banki was killed and the attack at the Bar Hanoar, over 50 LGBTQ speakers spread around Israel, from North to South, where they are hosted in peoples living rooms to tell their story. The result is hundreds of Israelis from all spectrums of society, coming together to listen to Jewish LGBTQ stories.
Last year, Pride in the Living Room was successful in expanding its reach internationally. We decided to broaden the effects of this project to Jewish Communities around the world, in the hopes of promoting awareness and tolerance through Jewish LGBTQ speakers.
Through social media and online digital living rooms, we were successful in reaching thousands of people globally, and exposing them to diverse Jewish LGBTQ stories. We reached speakers and communities in the USA, Canada, South America, Israel, Australia/New Zealand but not in Europe.
We wish to continue growing by creating dozens of Pride in the Living Room events also in Europe in autumn of 2021.
