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:Open House: "Haggadah and History: Highlights from Fordham Collections"
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the viewing of the exhibition\, “Haggadah and History: Highlights from the Fordham Collection\,” co-curated by Fordham undergraduate students Emma Fingleton\, FCRH ’19; Margaret Keiley\, FCRH ’21; and Zowie Kemery\, FCRH ’19; and Professor Magda Teter. \nWhat is remarkable about the Passover Haggadah is its historical adaptability. As Jews around the world each year during Passover recount the story of Exodus from Egypt\, they make it relevant to their own lives\, reflecting on the meaning of the story to their own times. Haggadot\, therefore\, often reflect not only the historical changes in Jewish culture but also the cultural diversity of Jews across the globe. \nThe Haggadah has been translated into over thirty languages. Fordham’s collection includes Haggadot in Arabic\, Amharic\, English\, French\, Hebrew\, Judeo-Arabic\, Judaeo-Persian\, Polish\, German\, Swedish\, Yiddish\, and even in Braille.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Haggadah and History: Highlights from Fordham's Collection
DESCRIPTION:In 1975\, Yosef Hayim Yerushalmi published his masterful volume Haggadah and History\, a visual history of the Haggadah since the early decades of printing until the year his book appeared. The Haggadah\, as Yerushalmi noted\, is “the most popular and beloved” of Jewish books. What is remarkable about the Haggadah is its historical adaptability. As Jews around the world each year during Passover recount the story of Exodus from Egypt\, they make it relevant to their own lives\, reflecting on the meaning of the story to their own times. Haggadot\, therefore\, often reflect not only the historical changes in Jewish culture but also the cultural diversity of Jews across the globe. On display at Fordham are Haggadot in Amharic\, Arabic\, English\, French\, Hebrew\, Judeo-Arabic\, Judaeo-Persian\, Polish\, German\, Swedish\, and Yiddish. Also on display will be our most recent acquisition: a Haggadah in Braille. You will see examples of lavish medieval manuscripts (here in high quality facsimiles)\, a children’s Haggadah from 1937 with pullouts\, disposable commercial Haggadot produced by businesses seeking to promote their products among Jewish consumers\, fundraising and activist Haggadot\, and more. \nThis exhibit is co-curated by Fordham undergraduate students Emma Fingleton\, FCRH ’19; Margaret Keiley FCRH ’21; and Zowie Kemery\, FCRH’19; and Professor Magda Teter.

SUMMARY:Managing Stereotype Threat on the Job Market
DESCRIPTION:Join GSAS Futures in conversation with Rufus E. Jones\, co-founder and president of the James Weldon Johnson Foundation. Jones will discuss a challenge endemic to many new candidates seeking jobs in academic and industry circles alike: stereotype threat. Candidates are often unaware of the capacity for stereotype threat to negatively impact their pursuit of professional success. Stereotype threat involves an individual undermining his or her own performance at a given task because of widespread beliefs that a social group with which he or she identifies—including groups organized by race\, gender\, nation\, or age—do not naturally perform well at that particular task. \nStereotype threat can breed anxiety and create conditions of self-sabotage in which job candidates struggle to perform well on interviews\, to negotiate contracts with new employers\, and to perform new jobs with competence and confidence. Feelings of discomfort may accompany settings where people feel there are few people like them. Nevertheless\, enhanced awareness and understanding of stereotype threat can greatly reduce its effects. \nJones will discuss his own journey as an individual of color who moved from Harvard to Wall Street to roles promoting education and the arts as a teacher\, administrator\, coach\, and fundraiser. Jones will discuss stereotype threat as he draws from his own experience as well as research he is co-facilitating with the James Weldon Johnson Foundation and a lab at New York University. He will discuss challenges that individuals may encounter as they pursue a range of professions and will offer practical coping strategies—including the use of interventions\, language\, and tactics to effectively handle various situations and mitigate the effects of stereotype threat to promote a job candidate’s success. \nLight refreshments will be served.
