Darom: Global South Perspectives in Jewish Studies
Series Editors: Bryan Roby, University of Michigan, and Shirly Bahar, Columbia University
This new series curates works on Jewish communities and cultures of the Global South and their diasporas. The series celebrates the fact that studies of Jewish communities and cultures of the Global South and its diasporas have been inspired by the critical work of interrogating race and racialization in the US and globally, as well as community-building efforts to resist structural white supremacy and ashkenormativity. By centering the geographical and conceptual peripheries of Jewish studies, we elicit creative ways of approaching Jewish histories and cultures.

Queer Screens
Series Editors: David A. Gerstner, College of Staten Island, CUNY and Cáel M. Keegan, Concordia University, Montréal
Queer Screens expands our senses by reimagining the relationship between queerness and the screen. In short, it engages in theoretical mayhem. Embracing mayhem’s destructive and reconstructive energies, each book in the series opens the “queer screen” to new questions about method, content, and form. Through rigorous textual analysis, Queer Screens refuses to let queerness rest or settle; it presses queer up against considerations of transness, race, and class analyses. Probing the edges of both queerness and the screen, the series provokes unexpected theorizations of visuality, aesthetics, mediation, canonicity, cinephilia, and auteurism.
