SUMMARY:Activism and the Art of Reinvention: Lyn Slater and Christine Platt in Conversation
DESCRIPTION:The Graduate School of Social Service is proud to host a conversation between author\, social worker\, fashion influencer\, and former GSS professor Lyn Slater\, Ph.D.\, and author Christine Platt\, J.D. The topic of conversation will be “living a life of activism creatively and finding opportunities to promote and facilitate intergenerational collaboration\,” using Slater’s upcoming book How to Be Old: Lessons in Living Boldly from the Accidental Icon (Plume\, 2024) and Platt’s 2021 release The Afrominimalist’s Guide to Living with Less as a framework for the discussion. \nAbout the Speakers\nLyn Slater is a writer\, activist\, social worker\, former professor\, and serial reinventer. Throughout her 47-year career as a social worker\, she has creatively accessed performance\, storytelling\, photography\, fashion\, social media\, and the internet in the service of her advocacy work. In 2014\, when she started a fashion blog at the age of 61\, she instigated a change in how older people are represented in the media\, as well as challenged stereotypes about what it means to be an older adult. She walked away when her role became more about consumerism than culture change. She shares her experience in her memoir\, How to Be Old. Today\, Slater writes on Substack and in a column in her local newspaper that seeks to engage residents of all ages in the project of making their city an age-friendly\, sustainable community. \nChristine Platt is a multigenre author who has carved a unique path in the worlds of lifestyle and literature. She holds a B.A. in Africana studies from the University of South Florida\, an M.A. in African and African American studies from The Ohio State University\, and a J.D. from Stetson University College of Law. Platt currently serves as the executive director for Jacqueline Woodson’s nonprofit residency for artists of the “global majority\,” Baldwin for the Arts. Platt is a member of the Association of Writers and Writing Programs\, the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators\, the Association of Black Women Historians\, and the Association for the Study of African American Life and History. She also serves as an ambassador for the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture.

SUMMARY:‘Banned! A History of Censorship’: Exhibit Tour and Talk About Censorship in Yiddish Press
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a tour of the exhibit “Banned! A History of Censorship” and a talk by Ayelet Brinn about the censorship in Yiddish Press. \nBooks\, libraries\, librarians\, and writers are subject to attacks—again. Recent book bans across the United States targeting Black history\, the Holocaust\, and LGBTQ themes have dominated the news. But the censorship of books has a longer history. The “Banned! A History of Censorship” exhibit explores that history\, along with the practices of censorship\, the methods to control and ban books and ideas\, the resilience of censored works\, and the attempts to push back. Authorities could ban books\, but they could not destroy them or the ideas contained in them entirely. Indeed\, while today some voices are heard complaining about universities not teaching major texts of “Western civilization\,” many of these books were originally banned across Europe by Protestant and Catholic authorities\, including works by Thomas Hobbes\, John Locke\, David Hume\, Denis Diderot\, Jean-Jacques Rousseau\, John Stuart Mill\, Immanuel Kant\, and more. \nMajor works of literature that we cherish today were also banned\, among them Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables and Alexander Dumas’s Three Musketeers\, which were both on Index Librorum Prohibitorum or the Index of Prohibited Books. As this exhibit demonstrates\, cultural\, religious\, and moral values are never static. They change over time. If some books and ideas become acceptable\, others might become abhorrent. Because Fordham was obliged to abide by the Index of Prohibited Books until its abolition in 1966\, due to its status as a Catholic and Jesuit university\, the exhibit also explores how Fordham dealt with books that were included in the Index. \nThe exhibit is on view at the Walsh Family Library in the main exhibition hall on the first floor and in Special Collections on the fourth floor until March 15. \nAbout the Speaker\nAyelet Brinn is the Philip D. Feltman Assistant Professor of Modern Jewish History in the Departments of Judaic Studies and History at the University of Hartford. She is the author of A Revolution in Type: Gender and the Making of the American Yiddish Press (2023). From 2019 to 2020\, she was the Rabin-Shvidler Post-Doctoral Fellow in Jewish Studies at Fordham and Columbia University.

SUMMARY:Webinar Series on Confronting Clergy Sexual Abuse: "Taking Responsibility"
DESCRIPTION:Fordham’s ongoing “Taking Responsibility: Jesuit Educational Institutions Confront the Causes and Legacy of Clergy Sexual Abuse” project is sponsoring two spring webinars. \nPart I: Memorializing Clergy Sexual Abuse \nJoin us for an interdisciplinary conversation about the ethics\, means\, and meanings of public memorials related to clergy sexual abuse. \nIn this webinar\, three scholars will explore questions about whether\, when\, and how communities can contend with the history and memory of the Roman Catholic clergy sex abuse crisis. With expertise in trauma studies\, liturgy\, theology\, and history\, our panelists ask about the ethics\, means\, and meanings of various efforts to remember clergy sex abuse\, as well as those who suffered and defied it. \nPart II: Whose Stories Are They? Catholic Sex Abuse Records and the Issue of Transparency \nSpringing from a recent legal settlement that promised an abuse documents archive in the Archdiocese of Santa Fe\, this webinar asks questions about the meanings\, limits\, and promise of “transparency” in the effort to understand and ameliorate the Catholic clergy abuse crisis. \nWhat is to be learned\, gained\, and achieved in opening up the archives of Catholic sex abuse? What kind of healing follows from transparency\, if any? Beyond respecting the wishes of survivors who prefer privacy\, are there any other limitations to consider? What does transparency have to do with Catholic theology or with the practices and disciplines of Catholic experience? \nJoin us as four experts—an archivist\, a canon lawyer\, a survivors’ attorney\, and a historian—tackle these and related questions. \nEmail takingresponsibility@fordham.edu with any questions.

SUMMARY:Fordham-NYPL Lecture Series in Jewish Studies: Nick Underwood on 'Yiddish As a Zionist National Language in Post-Holocaust France'
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a lunch talk in the Fordham-NYPL Lecture Series in Jewish Studies. Nick Underwood will discuss “Yiddish as a Zionist National Language in Post-Holocaust France\,” with a response by Shachar Pinsker\, Fordham-NYPL Research Fellow in Jewish Studies. \nThe largest Jewish population in postwar\, post-Holocaust Europe was found in France\, and it was diverse. France’s postwar social\, political\, cultural\, and linguistic context was also unique in Europe because it played host to so many different Jewish migrant\, returnee\, and survivor communities. Notably\, too\, unlike some corners of the global Jewish and Yiddish worlds\, the tradition of producing Zionist culture in Yiddish did not wane in the postwar years. \nThis talk will focus on the Zionist culture that was produced in Yiddish in France during the postwar years. Through an exploration of the journals\, organizations\, leaders\, and events produced by these Yiddish- and French-speaking Parisian Zionists\, we will learn how and why Yiddish remained relevant for Zionists. We will also explore the reasons they maintained Yiddish\, even after the establishment of the State of Israel\, which these Zionists were involved with and supported. \nA light kosher lunch will be available. \nAbout the Speaker\nNick Underwood is an assistant professor of history and the Berger-Neilsen Chair of Judaic Studies at The College of Idaho. He is a transnational cultural historian whose work focuses on 20th-century Yiddish culture in France. His work has appeared in several journals. In addition\, his first book\, Yiddish Paris: Staging Nation and Community in Interwar France (Indiana University Press\, 2022)\, was named a finalist for the National Jewish Book Award. He is also co-editor with Meredith Scott of a forthcoming edited volume titled Jewish Ideas of France: Migration\, Diaspora\, and Empire (Routledge Press). His current book project\, Yiddish Culture\, Jewish Migration\, the Making of Post-Holocaust France\, is an exploration of the Yiddish culture that blossomed in France after the Holocaust and Vichy\, from 1944 to 1965. He also serves as project manager for the Digital Yiddish Theatre Project and managing editor for the journal American Jewish History. \n

SUMMARY:Financial Issues Forum: Mark J. Higgins on Investing in the Financial History of the United States
DESCRIPTION:Investors who neglect to study the past are forced to rely primarily on their life experiences to make decisions. This often causes them to overlook powerful\, cyclical forces that repeatedly reshape economies and markets. Investing in U.S. Financial History fills this void by recounting the full financial history of the United States. It begins with Alexander Hamilton’s brilliant financial programs in 1790 and ends with the Federal Reserve’s battle to contain inflation in 2023. Mark Higgins will discuss several of the most important lessons that help contextualize the challenges that the United States currently faces. \nAbout the Speaker\nMark Higgins is the author of Investing in U.S. Financial History and is a senior vice president within Index Fund Advisors (IFA) Institutional. His written works appear regularly in the Museum of American Finance’s Financial History magazine and the CFA Institute’s Enterprising Investor. Higgins also frequently speaks on U.S. financial history and institutional investment management. He joined IFA in August 2023 to expand the firm’s footprint in the institutional investment plan market. Prior to joining IFA Institutional\, Higgins served as an institutional investment consultant for more than 12 years. In this role\, he served such clients as endowments\, pension plans\, and foundations that had aggregate assets of more than $60 billion. \nAdvance registration is required. Registered guests will receive the link prior to the program.

SUMMARY:How Did We Get Here? A Deep Dive into the History of Israel and Palestine\, Part IV: October 7 and the Aftermath
DESCRIPTION:The Hamas-engineered massacre of October 7\, 2023\, stunned and shocked Israel and the Jewish world to the core. It triggered a massive Israeli response that has reduced large parts of northern Gaza to rubble. Supporters of Israel and the Palestinians are more bitterly divided than ever\, around the world and especially on college campuses. What are the roots of today’s conflict? And what does it portend for the future of the region? \nTo gain insight into this latest stage in a brutal and divisive conflict that has ebbed and flowed for more than a century\, Fordham University’s Center for Jewish Studies is sponsoring a four-part series on the history of the conflict with Hussein Ibish\, Ph.D.\, and professor David Myers. During the 2017-2018 academic year\, Ibish and Myers came to campus to deliver a three-part series on the history of this conflict. Five years later\, they return to Fordham to offer an in-depth perspective on the history of Israel-Palestine in light of the current moment. \nThis is the fourth in a four-part series. For more information about the series\, please visit https://jewishstudies.ace.fordham.edu/how-did-we-get-here-a-deep-dive-into-the-history-of-israel-and-palestine/. \nAbout the Speakers\nHussein Ibish is a senior resident scholar at the Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington. He is a weekly columnist for The National and previously served as a senior fellow at the American Task Force on Palestine. \nDavid N. Myers is a distinguished professor and the Sady and Ludwig Kahn Chair of Jewish History at UCLA. The author and editor of many books\, he directs the UCLA Luskin Center for History and Policy and the UCLA Initiative to Study Hate.
