SUMMARY:2nd Annual Symposium on Data Science and AI: Empowering Society for the Greater Good
DESCRIPTION:As data and computational resources both continue to grow exponentially\, data science—and\, in particular\, machine learning and artificial intelligence—play larger and larger roles in our daily lives. They impact the applications that we use (Google Search and ChatGPT) and the devices we wear (Apple Watch) and deploy in our homes (Amazon Alexa). They also play critical roles in making decisions and decision support\, in areas from medicine to business. AI and data science\, like most technologies\, have the potential to improve our lives and society\, but they also have the potential to do harm. \nIn this full-day symposium\, Fordham faculty and students will present their AI and data science research and applications\, with a focus on work that benefits society. This symposium builds upon the success of last year’s symposium\, which reflected the tremendous diversity of AI and data science research being conducted at Fordham. Many departments were represented\, and the research spanned education\, health care and medicine\, neuroscience\, cybersecurity\, and the environment. With additional support from Fordham’s administration\, this year’s symposium will expand beyond arts and sciences to include the full participation of the Gabelli School of Business. \nA reception will follow.

SUMMARY:Fordham-NYPL Lecture Series in Jewish Studies: Shachar Pinsker on 'When Yiddish as Young in Israel”
DESCRIPTION:In his talk\, Shachar Pinsker will examine the role of Yiddish in Israeli culture. He will argue that even with the denial and self-repression of Yiddish\, the language continued to have a generative power and exert an influence on Israeli culture\, sometimes in covert and unacknowledged ways. Examining Yiddish literature and culture enables us to tackle anew the difficult issues that still bedevil the country: trauma\, victimhood\, conflicts\, and tensions between both Israeli Jews and Palestinians and Ashkenazi and Mizrahi Jews. \nAbout the Speaker\nShachar Pinsker is a professor of Judaic studies and Middle East studies at the University of Michigan. Pinsker is the author of two award-winning books: Literary Passports: The Making of Modernist Hebrew Fiction in Europe (Stanford University Press\, 2011) and A Rich Brew: How Cafés Created Modern Jewish Culture (NYU Press\, 2018). He is the editor and co-editor of Hebrew\, Gender\, and Modernity (University of Maryland Press\, 2007)\, Women’s Hebrew Poetry on American Shores (Wayne State University Press\, 2016)\, and Where the Sky and the Sea Meet: Israeli Yiddish Stories (Magnes Press\, 2023). He is currently writing a book on Yiddish in Israeli literature and co-directing the NEH-supported research project: “The Feuilleton\, the Public Sphere\, and Modern Jewish Cultures.”

SUMMARY:Beyond 9 to 5: Discovering Your Purpose and the Power of One Another
DESCRIPTION:Join us virtually for Beyond 9 to 5: Discovering Your Purpose and the Power of One Another with alumna Genevieve Piturro\, FCRH ’83. She will explore the profound journey of finding purpose outside of the workplace. Whether you’re in your second chapter or only on page one\, this event is designed to empower you to make a meaningful difference and find fulfillment on your personal journey. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals\, gain a fresh perspective on purpose\, and explore how you can contribute to the well-being of your community. \nAbout the Speaker\nGenevieve Piturro’s journey has taken her from a little girl’s question in a homeless shelter to the Oprah show to boardrooms and stages across America. A successful TV executive\, Piturro dramatically changed the direction of her life and found her purpose when a 6-year-old girl’s question rocked her world\, and she jumped off the corporate ladder. In 2001\, Piturro founded the hugely successful national organization Pajama Program and has written two books on purposeful leadership and launching a legacy. Her five-time\, award-winning Amazon best-seller\, Purpose\, Passion and Pajamas: How to Transform Your Life\, Embrace the Human Connection and Lead with Meaning\, debuted amid the COVID-19 pandemic to rave reviews. \nPiturro’s second book\, Purpose\, Passion\, and Moxie: How to Lead the Way and Leave a Legacy\, a workbook to help you start a nonprofit\, from scratch to success\, was released last September. Today\, Piturro is an inspirational speaker\, author\, and teacher of “Purpose and the Human Connection.”

SUMMARY:Yield Not: Hope and Communion in the Bronx’s Toughest Years
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a talk by journalist Eileen Markey. \nIn the darkest days of the New York City fiscal crisis and its aftermath in the 1970s\, as faith in cities faltered\, Bronx activists argued for the worth of urban neighborhoods and the value of people living in them. In a time of disinvestment\, arson\, and abandonment\, it was community organizing—often marshaled through Catholic parishes and drawing on religious narratives—that demonstrated an alternate vision for the future of the city: rebuilding neighborhoods that had been written off as beyond redemption. \nIn this lecture and discussion\, Eileen Markey\, writer in residence at the Center on Religion and Culture\, will draw on research for her forthcoming book about the Bronx people’s movement of the 1970s and 1980s. \nAbout the Speaker\nEileen Markey is an assistant professor of journalism at Lehman College of the City University of New York and a visiting scholar at the Bronx County Historical Society. She has reported on urban policy and social movements for more than two decades. \nThis event is co-sponsored by the Bronx County Historical Society as part of its annual Spring Lecture Series in Bronx History.

SUMMARY:El Niño at the Met: Opera\, Baby Jesus\, and Today’s Refugees
DESCRIPTION:The critically acclaimed opera is premiering at the Metropolitan Opera\, and director Lileana Blain-Cruz will join us for an evening of conversation on art\, faith\, and justice. There will be a special appearance by Daniela Mack\, the mezzo-soprano who will perform a selection from El Niño. \nA Christmas story at Easter time? That’s essentially what the Metropolitan Opera is doing in presenting the company premiere of John Adams’s El Niño. But the opera-oratorio’s focus on the experience of the refugee and the migrant—how they struggled to find acceptance in Biblical times—could not be more contemporary and urgent. \nThe composition incorporates sacred and secular texts in English\, Spanish\, and Latin—from biblical times to the present day—in an extraordinarily dramatic retelling of the Nativity. \nThe vivid new production also marks the Met debut of celebrated theater maker Lileana Blain-Cruz\, resident director at Lincoln Center Theater\, who joins us to talk about the opera and the importance of staging art that matters for our world today. She will be joined by Fadi Skeiker of Fordham Theatre and Fordham theology professor Leo Guardado. \nDavid Gibson\, director of the Center on Religion and Culture\, will moderate the discussion with the panelists and the audience. \nBONUS: Five pairs of tickets for a performance of the opera will be drawn at random for attendees who sign up at the door\, and all Fordham students and faculty will be eligible for discounted tickets. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the Metropolitan Opera and the Church of St. Paul the Apostle.

SUMMARY:Early Women Psychoanalysts: History\, Biography\, and Contemporary Relevance
DESCRIPTION:Scholar Klara Naszkowska will discuss a new book about the history of women in the early years of psychoanalysis. Each life story is unique\, yet each also intertwines with othes\, sharing numerous recurring themes\, such as gender\, Jewishness\, women’s education\, politics\, and migration. Many have been forgotten largely because of the sociopolitical circumstances of the early 20th century\, the Second World War\, and the Shoah\, or are only remembered because of their personal connections to their male partners.\nThroughout their lives and their stories are ssues that still hold red-hot relevance in our day: gendered discrimination\, antisemitism and other forms of racism\, xenophobia\, and inhumane immigration laws. \nAbout the Speaker\nKlara Naszkowska\, Ph.D.\, is a cultural historian of Jewish women and professor of gender\, sexuality\, and women’s studies. Her research explores the intersections of gender\, race\, class\, ethnicity\, sexuality\, immigration status\, and age. In the classroom\, she encourages students to learn from history by connecting the past events with the current and relevant cultural and sociopolitical topics\, themes\, and issues. Founding director of the International Association for SpielreinStudies and recipient of a Fulbright fellowship\, she is currently a research fellow at Fordham University’s Center for Jewish Studies. In her recently completed research project\, Naszkowska investigated a largely overlooked diaspora of Jewish Central-Eastern and Eastern European women psychoanalysts forced to emigrate to the United States between 1930 and 1941. She is currently writing a narrative nonfiction book titled Clara Happel\, Judaism\, and Psychoanalysis in America: Memory\, History\, and Interpretation (Routledge Press\, 2025).

SUMMARY:Sacred Landscapes: Memorialization in New York City Public Parks
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the launch event for A Breathing Place\, written by Amelia Medved\, the 2023–2024 Duffy fellow. There will be a presentation of Medved’s research and a light reception. \nPublic parks are the theater of New York City civic life\, serving as spaces of recreation\, rest\, learning\, and protest. They host the diverse\, occasionally conflicting desires of the living\, while simultaneously exhibiting a record of our shared public history. Medved’s research concerns the contemporary use of park memorial spaces in the Bronx\, Brooklyn\, and Manhattan\, specifically those that are consecrated burial sites. \nIn A Breathing Place\, Medved explores what it means to designate public space as sacred at four case study sites: the Prison Ship Martyrs Memorial in Fort Greene Park\, the Enslaved African burial ground in Van Cortlandt Park\, the public cemetery on Hart Island\, and the National September 11 Memorial at the World Trade Center. \nAbout the Speaker\nAmelia Medved\, FCRH ‘23\, majored in environmental studies and visual arts. She currently works as a studio assistant at SCAPE\, a New York City-based landscape architecture firm. Medved is passionate about environmental justice\, specifically with a focus on parks equity and community-based ecological stewardship.

SUMMARY:Darfur Hospitals Under Fire
DESCRIPTION:Recent fighting in El Fasher\, the capital of North Darfur\, hit hospitals and most health clinics hard\, and international agencies withdrew. In the aftermath\, the surviving Sudanese medical teams combined efforts to turn a modest maternity hospital and a tin-roof clinic into the city’s last trauma wards. Join us as Darfur Peace and Development Organization (DPDO) President Suliman Giddo\, who has just returned from the Chad border; Dr. Eilaf Mohamed\, who served in the maternity hospital and escaped wounded; and filmmaker/emergency coordinator Daniel J. Gerstle will share their story to illuminate how the international community could do more to help. \nSudan’s western region of Darfur has suffered more than two decades of violence and worsening droughts\, a year of civil war\, and now the brutal siege of its last government and joint force-controlled city\, El Fasher. Over the three-month siege\, fighters have directly targeted hospitals\, medical teams\, pharmacies\, and even health clinics. \nSpeakers \n\nSuliman Giddo\, Ph.D.\, founder and president of DPDO\, will speak about how organizations like his\, the Emergency Response Rooms\, and others could do more with the help of international partners.\nEilaf Mohamed\, M.D.\, an OBGYN from Saudi Maternity Hospital in El Fasher and a physician building a career in psychology\, was one of the first medical staff wounded. She will share what it was like and what could help her colleagues.\nDaniel J. Gerstle\, founder and director of Humanitarian Bazaar and a former emergency coordinator\, is now producing documentary films and has been supporting Sudanese journalists and medical teams to tell the story of health care under fire.\n\nRuth Mukwana\, senior fellow\, and Lily Egan\, communications officer\, both of the Institute of International Humanitarian Affairs at Fordham University\, will facilitate the webinar.

SUMMARY:Book Launch and Performance: Jessica Roda on For Women and Girls Only: Reshaping Jewish Orthodoxy Through the Arts in the Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:Have you had a glimpse of the mesmerizing music videos of ultra-Orthodox women celebrities Bracha Jaffe and Devorah Schwartz captivating more than half a million viewers on YouTube\, or the myriad films and Yiddish plays crafted by Hasidic girls in Montreal and New York? Probably not. This enduring lack of awareness persists because these spaces intentionally remain veiled in secrecy and privacy\, and the prevailing image\, as portrayed in productions like Netflix’s Unorthodox\, perpetuates the notion of the Hasidic woman as uncreative and subservient to male authority. \nIn this talk\, you will learn about these hidden artistic worlds\, the experience of Hasidic women who now perform for public audiences\, and their challenges to transform the image of Hasidicness. As an active observer and participant\, Roda will bring unique insights into these private feminine worlds. Stars like Bracha Jaffe and Shaindy Platzer are household names in these circles\, and the impact of their artistic productions is broad for Jewish music. \nThere will be a live musical performance following the oral presentation. \nAbout the Speakers\nJessica Roda is an anthropologist and ethnomusicologist whose research interests include music\, religion\, cultural heritage\, gender\, health\, and media. After a first monograph about the social and political implications of Sephardic music in France titled Se réinventer au present: Les Judéo-Espagnols de France (PUR 2018)\, she wrote a second book telling the captivating stories of ultra-Orthodox Jewish women and those who broke away from religion\, including their use of art\, digital tools\, and technology to challenge and reinforce Orthodoxy\, titled For Women and Girls Only: Reshaping Jewish Orthodoxy through the Arts in the Digital Age (NYU Press\, 2024). For this research\, she was awarded the Cashmere Award from the AJS Women’s Caucus (2021) and the Hadassah Brandeis Institute Research Award (2021). \nMalky Goldman is an actor\, artist\, and writer from a Yiddish-speaking home in Jerusalem\, with a fine arts degree from Hunter College. Her films and TV shows include The Vigil\, The Performance\, Unorthodox\, The Binding of Itzik\, and Castles. She has performed on stage in Hedda Gabler\, Rhinoceros\, and God of Vengeance. \nRiki Rose is a Yiddish singer-songwriter\, entertainer\, and chazzan who grew up in an ultra-Orthodox Hasidic community in Brooklyn. Inspired by her upbringing\, Rose’s original music focuses on mental health awareness and healing\, blending blues and jazz. For the performance\, she will present a selection of cantorial pieces\, Yiddish covers\, and her own original compositions.

SUMMARY:Book Launch: Rachel Gordan on Postwar Stories: How Books Made Judaism American
DESCRIPTION:Rachel Gordon will be discussing her book Postwar Stories: How Books Made Judaism American\, which details a transformational era in American history immediately following World War II. At the start of the 1940s\, President Franklin D. Roosevelt had to all but promise that if Americans entered the war\, it would not be to save the Jews. By the end of the decade\, antisemitism was in decline\, and Jews were moving toward general acceptance in American society. Gordon’s book examines the role of popular books in this era of change for Jews and American culture. \nAbout the Speaker\nRachel Gordan is the Samuel Shorstein fellow in American Jewish Culture and Society at the University of Florida\, where she teaches in the Department of Religion and the Center for Jewish Studies. She received a Ph.D. from Harvard and a Bachelor of Arts degree from Yale. For the 2024-2025 academic year\, Gordan is a National Endowment for the Humanities fellow at the Center for Jewish History in New York\, where she is working on a biography of novelist Laura Z. Hobson. Gordon grew up in the Boston area.

SUMMARY:2024 Rita Cassella Jones Lecture on Women and U.S. Catholicism
DESCRIPTION:Synod reports from every corner of the world ask the church to recognize the baptismal equality of all people.

SUMMARY:In the Footsteps of the Jews of Greece
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this lecture on the Jews of Greece featuring Anastasios Karababas\, author of In the Footsteps of the Jews of Greece: From Ancient Times to the Present Day. Greek Jewry has a unique history in Europe\, and Greek Judaism is possibly the oldest faith on the continent. The Hellenized Romaniotes\, the Sephardim from the western Mediterranean\, and the Ashkenazim from central Europe created a mosaic of communities across the country\, each one with its own fascinating history and tradition. \nThessaloniki (the ‘Jerusalem of the Balkans’)\, Ioannina (the capital of the Romaniotes)\, Larissa\, Volos\, Patras\, Crete\, Corfu\, Rhodes\, Athens\, and many others—these Jewish communities\, together but also individually\, are an integral part of Greece’s rich history. \nThis pioneering book presents a unique detailed historical overview of the history of Greek Jews from antiquity to the present day\, including the period of the Shoah\, when nearly 90% of the community was annihilated. Beyond this historical landscape\, the book also highlights the contributions of Greek Jews to the economic\, cultural\, intellectual and political life of the country\, and reveals the golden times and the darkest days in the coexistence between Jews and Christians in Greece.

SUMMARY:Cultural Clashes: The Role of Religion in Civic Society
DESCRIPTION:Orit Avishai\, professor of sociology\, led a team of students in researching how (and why) religious Americans mobilize rights-based arguments and the relationship between civic engagement and faith-based rhetoric. \nStudents explored using freedom of religion to legally argue for abortion protections\, how scripture in public schools can violate freedom of religion\, and religious minorities’ legal history with the freedom of religion. This event offers a chance to learn more about their findings. \nThe research was funded by the Center for Ethics Education and the Dr. K. York and M. Noelle Chynn Family Endowment.

SUMMARY:Film Screening and Discussion: Commandment 613
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a webinar discussion of the film Commandment 613 with Rabbi Kevin Hale\, Lois Roman\, Julie Seltzer\, and Miriam Lewin\, moderated by Rabbi Katja Vehlow\, Ph.D. The film will be virtually screened from September 19 to 29\, and a link will be sent to all registrants prior to the event. \nIn the award-winning\, 23-minute documentary\, Rabbi Hale joyfully practices the sacred craft of Torah restoration\, bringing new life to scrolls saved in Czechoslovakia during the Shoah. The scrolls are now loaned out to communities around the world by the Memorial Scrolls Trust in London. As Rabbi Hale’s scribal work takes him to some of those communities\, he reflects on his own path to faith and practice—and the many ways to fulfill the final commandment in the Torah: to write the scroll itself. \nOur online discussion will feature Rabbi Hale\, Julie Seltzer\, trustee of the Memorial Scrolls Trust Lois Roman\, and Miriam Lewin\, director of Commandment 613. The panel will be moderated by Rabbi Katja Vehlow\, Ph.D.\, of Fordham University. \nRead more about the speakers.
