lover of all things beautiful

Happy birthday Yona Wallach!

Born on 10 June 1944, Israeli poet Yona Wallach was openly bisexual. She rarely wrote about specific relationships, saying “I want to keep it as an experience, not turn it into words,” but several of her poems are explicitly about sex with female lovers.

When she started publishing in the 1960s, Yona became one of the few female voices in the male-dominated sphere of Hebrew poetry, and one of the first Hebrew poets to write openly about women’s sexuality.

Not everyone can attend (or wants to attend) a Pride event in-person. Maybe there isn't one in your area, maybe they're 18+ or 21+ only, maybe they're not accessible to you, or maybe you're not out right now.

No matter the reason, we created our first Digital Pride experience in 2020 so you can join in from anywhere - and IT'S BACK AGAIN for 2023!

We'll be streaming Digital Pride on Twitch FOUR WEEKS IN A ROW during June!
