Queering Religion

My student, Pete Mancilla, created this wonderful presentation — “Rabbi Camille Shira Angel taught my Queering Religion class at University of San Francisco. Without her I would have never opened my eyes to how important it is to see faith through queer eyes….”

For the first time in its 164-year history, the University of San Francisco has appointed a rabbi in residence. She can’t wait to get started.

“Let me be your rabbi!” declares Camille Shira Angel, the first rabbi-in-residence at the University of San Francisco, a Jesuit Catholic institution, where she has been a longtime adjunct professor in the Swig Program in Jewish Studies and Social Justice.

My students at the University of San Francisco are learning through Queering Religion that there is much work to be done to ensure that religious pluralism dominates our cultural conversation.
