SUMMARY:The Year of the Discovery Public Screening
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of The Year of the Discovery by Luis López Carrasco. \nSpain\, 1992. The Barcelona Olympic Games and the Seville Universal Expo\, together with the celebration of the fifth centenary of the discovery of America that same year\, presented Spain to the international community as a modern\, developed\, and dynamic country. Meanwhile in Cartagena\, an industrial city in the southwest region of Murcia\, protests against the closing of several factories and deindustrialization policies were becoming increasingly violent\, finally resulting in a mass uprising that culminated with the burning of the regional parliament. \nWith extremely original narrative methods\, Carrasco approaches this forgotten episode of contemporary Spanish history by opening a space for intergenerational conversation. Older participants in the 1992 protests share their memories and experiences\, alongside younger people who discuss their hopes and fears. The Year of the Discovery is a moving testimony and a powerful reflection on the history of the working class\, the effects of globalization\, the deterioration of democracy\, the everyday impositions of precarity\, and the role of memory as a bridge between past and present.

SUMMARY:WWII & NYC: The Big Apple Goes to War
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Veteran’s Day for a virtual presentation with the New-York Historical Society\, titled WWII & NYC: The Big Apple Goes to War. \nNew Yorkers did not suffer the devastation experienced by citizens of London\, Moscow\, Berlin\, or Tokyo during World War II. But New York City was a center of activity and contributed disproportionately to the final victory. New York produced everything from battleships and brassieres to periscopes and penicillin\, and more than 3 million troops and more than 63 million tons of supplies passed through New York Harbor en route to the battlefield. In this interactive\, virtual presentation\, hear little-known stories\, such as how a group of German saboteurs landed on Long Island only to take the LIRR in the wrong direction\, and why a portion of the FDR Drive is built atop rubble from Bristol\, England. \nThe cost of this event is $10 per person. Space is limited for this unique experience.

SUMMARY:Trump\, Biden\, and the Future of Christian Nationalism: What the Presidential Election Means for Rightwing Religious Populism
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the second of a two-part series. Donald Trump’s presidency coincided with the emergence of a fiery American nationalism fed by a strain of conservative Christianity and a sense of white racial and cultural superiority. This toxic combination is growing in many parts of the globe. \nIn the United States\, the outcome of the presidential contest between Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden will have a critical impact on whether white Christian nationalism dissipates or grows as a political force and a domestic threat. \nThis panel of experts convenes two days after the election to explain the sources of Christian nationalism in America and internationally\, analyze the impact of the election’s outcome on this phenomenon\, and discuss ways to combat this scourge. David Gibson\, director of Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture\, will moderate the discussion\, including questions from the online audience. \nPanelists \nEddie S. Glaude Jr. is chair of the Department of African American Studies at Princeton University and president of the American Academy of Religion. He is a well-known commentator on religion and politics and his most recent book is Begin Again: James Baldwin’s America and Its Urgent Lessons for Our Own (Crown Publishing Group\, 2020). \nRobert P. Jones is the CEO and founder of the Public Religion Research Institute and is a leading commentator on religion\, culture\, and politics. He is the author of White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity (Simon & Schuster\, 2020) and The End of White Christian America (Simon & Schuster\, 2016)\, which won the 2019 Grawemeyer Award in Religion. \nKristina Stoeckl is a professor of sociology at the University of Innsbruck. She is currently principal investigator of the research project Postsecular Conflicts. This effort examines connections between the Russian Orthodox Church and global networks of the Christian Right.

SUMMARY:The Shaker Moment: Why an 18th-Century Utopian Sect Appeals to Our Modern Age
DESCRIPTION:For most people\, the Shakers are more of a brand than a faith. If someone knows anything about them\, it is their simple lifestyle and carefully crafted furniture. Shaker-inspired chairs and cabinets appear in home design magazines\, and 19th-century Shaker furniture can be found in art museums and in private collections. Yet the Shakers were much more than their furniture\, and their legacy informs our modern longings far more than we may realize. \nThe United Society of Believers in Christ’s Second Appearing\, as the Shakers called themselves\, was one of the most successful and long-lived utopian societies in America. They believed in radical gender and racial equality long before those movements gained popular appeal and their spiritual practices included ecstatic dance and spirit drawings alongside quiet reflection and somber prayer. As one of the last living Shakers quipped a few years ago: “I don’t want to be remembered as a chair.” \nHow should we remember the Shakers? What does their religious and communal vision have to offer the world today? For the past two years\, a group of religion scholars and art historians\, practicing artists\, and museum professionals considered the legacy of the Shakers in the present day. The project was generously funded by a grant from the Henry Luce Foundation to the Fordham theology department and was co-directed by Kathryn Reklis and Lacy Schutz. This webinar convenes some of the “Shaker Fellows” from this project to talk about what they learned and how the Shaker witness can inspire our own moment. \nDavid Gibson\, director of Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture\, will open and close the event\, and he will assist in fielding questions from the online audience. \nPanelists \n\nKathryn Reklis\, an associate professor of theology at Fordham\, writes on a range of topics\, from modern Protestant theology to religion and pop culture. Her most recent book is Protestant Aesthetics and the Arts\, co-edited with Sarah Covington.\nLacy Schutz is the executive director of the Shaker Museum\, which stewards the most comprehensive collection of Shaker material culture and archives\, as well as the historic Shaker site in New Lebanon\, New York. The museum’s permanent new facility\, in Chatham\, New York\, is slated for completion in 2023.\nCourtney Bender\, a professor of religion at Columbia University\, specializes in contemporary American religion. She is completing a book on modernist visions of the future of religion that developed in 20th-century architectural and planning projects.\nMaggie Taft is an art historian specializing in modern design and the curator of the Shaker Museum exhibit that was installed in downtown Chatham\, New York.\nAshon T. Crawley is a professor of religious studies and African-American studies at the University of Virginia and author of Blackpentecostal Breath: The Aesthetics of Possibility. He is also a practicing artist.

SUMMARY:Immigration and Identity\, Borders and Bridges: Francisco Cantú Discusses His Memoir
DESCRIPTION:Francisco Cantú\, a Mexican-American raised in the scrublands of the Southwest\, joined the U.S. Border Patrol in 2008. He spent the next four years hauling in the bodies of dead immigrants and delivering to detention centers those he found alive. Cantú left the Border Patrol in 2012 and began a journey of his own\, culminating in his highly acclaimed 2018 memoir\, The Line Becomes a River: Dispatches from the Border. \nDisputes over immigration have only intensified as the presidential election approaches\, and issues of racism and national identity are playing out around the country. More than ever\, the personal is political\, and Cantú’s memoir is a powerful testimony to understanding this national moment. During this event\, Cantú will discuss his own story\, the process of writing a memoir\, and his take on the ongoing immigration debate. \nGlenn Hendler\, a professor of English and American studies at Fordham\, will moderate the conversation\, and Cantú will take questions from the students in a class Hendler is co-teaching with Fordham’s Writer at Risk in Residence\, Félix Kaputu\, titled “Creating Dangerously: Writing from Conflict Zones.” Other Fordham students and our online audience will also be able to pose questions using the chat feature. David Gibson\, director of Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture\, will open and close the event\, as well as help field audience questions.

SUMMARY:Hidden Heretics: Jewish Doubt in the Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation between Ayala Fader and Robert Orsi on the digital book launch of Fader’s Hidden Heretics: Jewish Doubt in the Digital Age (Princeton University Press\, 2020). In stories of conflicts between faith and self-fulfillment\, Hidden Heretics explores the moral compromises and divided loyalties of individuals facing life-altering crossroads. This is a revealing look at Jewish men and women who secretly explore the outside world\, in person and online\, while remaining in their ultra-Orthodox religious communities. \nWhat would you do if you questioned your religious faith\, but revealing that would cause you to lose your family and the only way of life you had ever known? Hidden Heretics tells the fascinating\, often heart-wrenching stories of married ultra-Orthodox Jewish men and women in 21st century New York who lead “double lives” in order to protect those they love. While they no longer believe that God gave the Torah to Jews at Mount Sinai\, these hidden heretics continue to live in their families and religious communities\, even as they surreptitiously break Jewish commandments and explore forbidden secular worlds in person and online. Drawing on five years of fieldwork with those living double lives and the rabbis\, life coaches\, and religious therapists who minister to\, advise\, and sometimes excommunicate them\, Fader investigates religious doubt and social change in the digital age. \nAyala Fader received her Ph.D. from New York University and is currently a professor of anthropology at Fordham University. She is the author of the award-winning book Mitzvah Girls: Bringing Up the Next Generation of Hasidic Jews in Brooklyn (Princeton 2009). Her recent fellowships include the National Science Foundation and the National Endowment for the Humanities in support of her latest book\, Hidden Heretics: Jewish Doubt in the Digital Age (Princeton\, 2020). Fader is the co-founder and co-convener of the New York Working Group on Jewish Orthodoxies at Fordham’s Center for Jewish Studies. \nRobert Orsi is the Grace Craddock Nagle Chair of Catholic Studies at Northwestern University\, where he is also professor of religious studies\, history\, and American studies. Professor Orsi studies modern and contemporary religion\, with a special focus on Catholic practices and ideas\, from both historical and ethnographic perspectives. He also researches and writes on theory and method in the study of religion. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and has been a recipient of fellowships from the NEH and the Guggenheim Foundation. His books include\, The Madonna of 115th Street: Faith and Community in Italian Harlem\, 1880-1959; Thank You\, Saint Jude: Women’s Devotion to the Patron Saint of Hopeless Causes; and Between Heaven and Earth: The Religious Worlds People Make and the Scholars Who Study Them. His most recent book is History and Presence (2016\, Belknap Imprint of Harvard University Press). \nAll Fordham events in Jewish Studies are free. This event will be a webinar via Zoom. Link will sent 1-2 days prior. \nQuestions? Contact:\nFordham Jewish Studies\njewishstudies@fordham.edu \n718-817-3929
