SUMMARY:Democratization of AI: Impact on Business\, Economy\, and Society
DESCRIPTION:The Gabelli School of Business School invites you to attend the Flaum Leadership Lecture Series featuring Pulak Ghosh\, Ph.D.\, on ”Democratization of AI: Impact on Business\, Economy\, and Society.“ \nA reception will immediately follow the lecture. \nAbout the talk: \nDespite the tremendous progress in the past decade\, artificial intelligence (AI) still belongs to a few large internet-based tech firms. However\, Large Language Models\, riding on our huge knowledge of supervised learning\, are changing that\, and for the first time\, we are hopeful of an “AI for ALL” era. In the lecture\, Ghosh will explore this new wave and give examples of how these new AI systems bring opportunities for the current economy and its future. While we are on the brink of a democratized technological revolution that could jumpstart productivity\, boost global growth\, and raise incomes around the world\, it raises important questions about its potential impact on the global economy and society at large. It could also replace jobs and deepen inequality. The talk will also touch upon the role of regulators in responsible AI practices.

SUMMARY:The 16th Annual Julio Burunat\, Ph.D.\, Memorial Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Spiritual Friendship and a Buried Catholic History: Insights for Today\nBrenna Moore\, Th.D.\, Fordham University \nBrenna Moore will be sharing research from her book Kindred Spirits: Friendship and Resistance at the Edges of Modern Catholicism (winner of John Gilmary Shea Prize from the American Catholic Historical Association). She will describe her discovery of an archive of a remarkable\, global network of Catholic intellectuals\, activists and artists from the mid-20th century\, for whom “spiritual friendship” was a key to both the divine and human realms\, a means of accessing the transcendent while also engaging with our social and political existence. This buried history speaks to our own time\, about the need for human connection as an antidote to isolation\, and what it might look like to place deep friendship at the center of our social\, political\, and even spiritual lives.

SUMMARY:Undocumenting Abuse: Migration\, Power\, and the Production of Invisible Victims
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Susan B. Reynolds\, Ph.D.\, Winner of the 2024 New Scholar Essay Prize for Catholic Studies in the Americas. \nClergy sexual violence in immigrant communities is an understudied dimension of the abuse crisis in the Catholic Church. Yet records reveal how immigrant-serving parishes were regularly treated as dumping grounds for serially abusive clergy. There\, abusers targeted children from poor\, vulnerable\, and undocumented families\, silencing victims with threats of deportation and further violence. This lecture will call for a reorientation in the study of clergy sexual abuse toward these peripheries. Drawing on archival records from the 1960s to 1980s\, it will interrogate the complex politics of documentation at work in migrant abuse cases. It will further examine how a post-Vatican II theological and pastoral imagination of intimacy with the poor\, refracted through prisms of state\, ecclesial\, and clerical dominance\, helped to create conditions for the production of invisible victims.

SUMMARY:Aleksandra Szczepan\, “Intimate Cartographies: Mapping Jewish Eastern Europe in Yizker-Bikher”
DESCRIPTION:This talk will explore how Jewish memorial books\, yizker-bikher\, created by Holocaust survivors or by pre-war Jewish émigrés from Eastern Europe\, have engaged and encouraged various forms of mappings. 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.

SUMMARY:“Blue Like Me”: An Evening with Siona Benjamin
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the exhibit “Yearning to Breathe: The Art of Siona Benjamin” at Fordham Univerisity’s Walsh Family and Quinn Libraries\, we invite you to join us for a screening of the documentary Blue Like Me\, profiling the Indian-American artist Siona Benjamin. 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.

SUMMARY:Center on Asian Americans and the Law Third Annual Fall Symposium  From Tokyo Rose to the China Initiative:  Espionage and AAPIs
DESCRIPTION:Third Annual Fall Symposium \nFrom Tokyo Rose to the China Initiative: \nEspionage and AAPIs \nThursday\, November 14\, 2024 \nIn-Person and Online \nCostantino Room\nFordham Law School \nAgenda\n5:30 – 6 p.m. Check-in\n6 – 7:30 p.m. Program\n7:30 – 8:30 p.m. Reception \nAsian Americans have long been accused of spying for foreign countries and engaging in acts of treason. 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.

SUMMARY:Thrive: Maximizing Well-Being in the Age of AI
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation with Ravi Bapna & Anindya Ghose on their recently published book Thrive: Maximizing Well-Being in the Age of AI. \nHow AI can positively impact so many aspects of our daily lives\, from health and wellness to work\, education\, and home life. \nArtificial intelligence (AI) is a powerful general-purpose technology that is reshaping the modern economy\, but misperceptions about AI stand in the way of harnessing it for the betterment of humanity. In Thrive\, Ravi Bapna and Anindya Ghose counter the backlash by showcasing how AI is positively influencing the aspects of our daily lives that we care about most: our health and wellness\, relationships\, education\, the workplace\, and domestic life. In the process\, the authors help explain the underlying technology and give people the agency they need to shape the debate around how we should regulate AI to maximize its benefits and minimize its risks.

SUMMARY:Rabbi Vanessa Ochs\, “A Living Tradition: Jewish Ritual Responses to COVID and October 7th”
DESCRIPTION:It seems as if it happened “overnight\,” when during the COVID quarantine\, Jewish practices were mostly shifted to virtual platforms or were held in environments providing for social distance. Likewise\, only days after October 7\, 2023\, new Jewish practices emerged to mark concern for the hostages\, including installing “empty Shabbat tables” worldwide and wearing “Bring them Home-Now!” dog tags. \nOchs\, an ethnographer of Jewish practice who focuses on material culture and takes a lived-religion approach\, will be discussing what these newest Jewish ritual practices have in common\, including spontaneity\, resilience\, and collectivity. \nRabbi Vanessa Ochs\, Ph.D.\, is Professor Emerita in the UVA Department of Religious Studies and Jewish Studies Program. In 2023–2024\, she was the Rabbi Sally Priesand Visiting Professor at the HUC/JIR Rabbinical Schools. Her books include The Passover Haggadah: A Biography (Princeton University Press) and Inventing Jewish Ritual (JPS).

SUMMARY:Holy Rebellion or Religious Egoism? The Achievements of Religious Zionist Feminism and the Rabbinic Illiberal Backlash in Israel
DESCRIPTION:This lecture is based on the groundbreaking research presented in Holy Rebellion: Religious Feminism and the Transformation of Judaism and Women’s Rights in Israel (Brandeis\, 2024). Co-authors Tanya Zion-Waldoks and Ronit Irshai will delve into the emergence\, achievements\, and challenges of Religious Zionist (Dati) feminism in Israel—one of the most dynamic and influential movements within contemporary Judaism and Israeli feminism. Drawing from sociological\, theological\, cultural\, and legal perspectives\, the lecture will explore the dual narrative shaping this critical moment in Israeli society. On one hand\, it will spotlight the remarkable strides made by Religious Zionist feminists in challenging gender inequities within Orthodox Judaism and Israeli society at large. On the other\, it will analyze the rising illiberal backlash involving rabbinic authorities seeking to reverse these gains. The authors will discuss the pivotal role of Israel’s judiciary—particularly the Supreme Court—in navigating these tensions and will introduce their book’s innovative theoretical frameworks: the “Narrative Ripeness Test” and the “Dignity Test.” They will also address the broader societal dynamics at play within a “Jewish and democratic” society in crisis. This lecture is a must for anyone interested in the complex interplay of religion\, feminism\, law\, and activism in Israel and beyond. \nAbout speakers:\nTanya Zion-Waldoks\, a tenured assistant professor at the Seymour Fox School of Education at Hebrew University\, investigates intersections of gender\, education\, religion\, and politics. She studies feminist activism for social change\, gender equality in education\, and anti-racist activism in Israel. She published in top journals and her recent book\, with Ronit Irshai\, is Holy Rebellion: Religious Feminism and the Transformation of Judaism and Women’s Rights in Israel (Brandeis University Press\, 2024). She previously held a postdoctoral fellowship at Princeton University\, and her work is supported by the Israel Science Foundation. \nRonit Irshai is an associate professor and the former head of the gender studies\ndepartment at Bar Ilan University in Israel; a research fellow at the Shalom Hartman institute in Jerusalem (For pluralistic Judaism)\, a member in the board of the Reckman center at Bar Ilan University (For women rights) and a member Kolech; – A religious feminist forum. She has been a visiting scholar at Harvard Divinity School during the academic year of 2007-2008\, a visiting scholar at the Hadassah Brandeis Institute in fall 2016 and a visiting Professor at Gindal Global University in February 2019 in India. Her work focuses on the judicial and theological intersections between Jewish law (Halakhah) and feminist and gender insights\, from diverse Jewish-denominational perspectives\, but especially from the Orthodox angle. She has written numerous articles and book chapters. Among them articles on halakhah (Jewish Law)\, theology and gender; Fertility and Jewish law; Sexual injuries\, halakhah and Israeli Rabbinical courts; Jewish religious feminism; Jewish feminist theologies and Jewish law and LGBTQ people. Her first book: Fertility and Jewish Law – Feminist Perspectives on Orthodox Responsa Literature was published by Brandeis University Press in 2012. The second book on abortion was published in Hebrew by Magness press\, in 2022 and the third book\, Holy Rebellion\, on Modern-Orthodox Feminism in Israel (together with Dr. Tanya Zion-Waldoks) was published by Brandeis University Press in spring 2024. She also co-edited a Jubilee book in honor of Prof. Tamar Ross.

SUMMARY:Mauro Canali\, "Follow the Oil: Italian Fascism and the Matteotti Murder"
DESCRIPTION:The murder of the Italian Socialist politician Giacomo Matteotti in 1924 paved the way to the establishment of the Fascist dictatorship and to a fundamental reshaping of all institutions of the Italian state. In this lecture\, geared in particular toward the NYC undergraduate population\, famed historian Mauro Canali (whose classic study\, The Matteotti Murder and Mussolini\, has been recently published in English by Palgrave) will introduce students to his research\, based on the trial records smuggled to London by Giuseppe Emanuele Modigliani (1872-1946)\, the lawyer of the Matteotti family\, as soon as it became clear that he\, too\, was a target of the Fascist regime. \nModigliani\, a Jew from Livorno\, was one of the founders of the Italian Socialist Party and of the first Italian union\, and worked to develop and maintain strong ties with union and socialist activists in the US. Modigliani documented that Matteotti was investigating bribes from the American Sinclair Oil Company to the Italian government in exchange for the monopoly to drill on Italian soil and in the Italian colonies. The attorney’s relation to Matteotti\, before the murder and during the trial\, illuminates a complex map of alliances and conflicts between Italy and the United States. \nThis lecture will invite us to apprehend the Matteotti murder as a complex historical event\, seizing the ways in which corruption and social struggles fluctuated between worlds that were politically and ideologically apart\, and rethinking the nexus between edifying political narratives and the race to secure resources. \nAbout Mauro Canali\nMauro Canali is a full professor of contemporary history at the University of Camerino\, Italy\, and a leading scholar of fascism. His extensive research delves into the repressive mechanisms of Mussolini’s regime\, its totalitarian structure\, and its system of informants. Prof. Canali has authored numerous acclaimed works\, including Il delitto Matteotti and Le spie del regime\, earning prestigious awards. He has held a visiting position at Harvard University and regularly contributes to Italian media and historical programming. He has written on the American press and Fascism and researched the role of oil and mineral resources in 20th-century warfare. Among his publications is Mussolini e il petrolio iracheno. L’Italia\, gli interessi petroliferi e le grandi potenze  (Mussolini and Iraqi oil: Italy\, oil interests\, and the great powers)\, 2007.
