A rotary actuated clutch, comprising an axis of rotation, a housing, an input hub, an intermediate hub, and an output hub. For a first locked mode, the intermediate hub and the output hub are non-rotatably connected to the housing, and for a torque-transmitting mode the input hub is arranged to receive torque in a first circumferential direction, the input hub is arranged to rotate in the first circumferential direction to disengage the intermediate hub from the housing, and the intermediate hub is arranged to rotate the output hub in the first circumferential direction.
