Life Worthy of Life: A Jewish Disabled Gay Poet and Holocaust Writer Reflects on His Life

Kenny Fries, an internationally recognized poet, memoirist and essayist whose work reflects his experience
as a Jewish, disabled, gay man, will Zoom in from Berlin, where he has been working on his upcoming book
on the treatment of people with disabilities in the Holocaust. His talk will take us on a tour through his work
and his mind, weaving together the intersectionality of being Jewish, gay and disabled with his Holocaust
research.
