Weaving together personal experience and political analysis in an examination of how race, gender, sexuality, class, and other hierarchies function in family politics, Marla Brettschneider draws on her own experience in a Jewish, multiracial, adoptive, queer family in order to theorize about the layered realities that characterize families in the United States today. Brettschneider uses critical race politics, feminist insight, class-based analysis, and queer theory to offer a distinct and distinctly Jewish contribution to both the family debates and the larger project of justice politics.SUNY series in feminist criticism and theory.Gay and lesbian studiesJewish lesbiansFamily relationshipsJewish familiesMonogamous relationshipsJewsIdentityRace awarenessGroup identityIdentity (Psychology)Gay and lesbian studies.Jewish lesbiansFamily relationships.Jewish families.Monogamous relationships.JewsIdentity.Race awareness.Group identity.Identity (Psychology)306.84/8089924Brettschneider Marla1809578MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910972961403321The family flamboyant4360439UNINA
