These include both material cartographic images published in memorial books and performative acts of mapping the space of Jewish Eastern Europe undertaken by two groups of actors: those who decided to come back and see\, among them members of various generations of Jewish families\, and those who felt compelled to understand what has been destroyed or rendered invisible in their localities—the non-Jewish residents of former Eastern-European shtetlach. \nAleksandra Szczepan is a post-doctoral researcher in the project “Adjustment and Radicalization: Dynamics in Popular Culture(s) in Eastern Europe” at the University of Potsdam. She is a literary scholar and a co-founder of the Research Center for Memory Cultures at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków. She has also been engaged as a researcher and interviewer in oral history projects undertaken by the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Poland\, Spain\, and Kazakhstan. She has received scholarships from various institutions\, including the USHMM\, Vienna Wiesenthal Institute for Holocaust Studies\, the European Holocaust Research Infrastructure\, and the Polish National Science Centre. She is currently working on a book project that proposes thinking about the significance of maps as testimonies in Holocaust research.

Raised in the small Bene Israel Jewish community in Mumbai\, India\, Benjamin’s art fuses world religions with eastern myths and western pop culture to create vibrant new worlds. Blue Like Me travels with Siona to Mumbai\, revisiting the Bene Israel Jews portrayed in her recent Fulbright project. Benjamin is a daughter of Israel\, born of India\, and a citizen of the world—and that world is blue. \nBenjamin is originally from Bombay\, and now lives and works in Montclair\, New Jersey. Her work reflects her background of being brought up Jewish in a predominantly Hindu and Muslim India. In her paintings\, she combines the imagery of her past with the role she plays in America today\, making a mosaic inspired by both Indian miniature paintings and Jewish and Christian illuminated manuscripts.

In 1949\, for example\, Iva Toguri D’Aquino was tried for treason in San Francisco—as the infamous “Tokyo Rose.” Years later\, she was pardoned. \nHalf a century later\, Dr. Wen Ho Lee\, a scientist at Los Alamos National Laboratory\, was accused of stealing U.S. nuclear secrets for China. Although he eventually pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor\, the sentencing judge apologized to him on behalf of the United States. \nAnd more recently\, the U.S. Government’s “China Initiative” targeted academics and scientists\, bringing indictments with great fanfare\, only to see many of the charges dropped\, dismissed\, or drastically reduced. \nThe Third Annual Fall Symposium of the Center on Asian Americans and the Law at Fordham Law School will explore issues presented by the Government’s prosecution over the years of Asian Americans for espionage and treason. We will first examine several historic cases and follow with a panel discussion on the Government’s more recent actions.
