Rather than seeing the devastation\, After shows how poets respond to catastrophe and write in its aftermath. The film is ultimately about human resiliency\, the power and courage to forge new lives\, and the value of poetry in looking to the past to help create a better future. \nThe virtual panel discussion will include the film’s director Richard Kroehling\, Amelia Glaser\, a scholar of Slavic and Jewish literature from the nineteenth century to the present and the author of Jews and Ukrainians in Russia’s Literary Borderlands (2012) and Songs in Dark Times: Yiddish Poetry of Struggle from Scottsboro to Palestine (2020)\, and Anna Shternshis\, a scholar of Jewish culture in Russia and the Soviet Union\, oral history as well as Yiddish music and the author of Soviet and Kosher: Jewish Popular Culture in the Soviet Union\, 1923 – 1939 (2006) and When Sonia Met Boris: An Oral History of Jewish Life under Stalin (2017)\, and director of a Grammy-nominated project\, Yiddish Glory: The Lost Songs of WWII\, which highlights forgotten Yiddish music written during the Holocaust in the Soviet Union.

This lecture will deal with both American denominational Haggadot\, which include those produced by the three major movements—Reform\, Conservative\, and Orthodox—and English-language\, cause-inspired Haggadot produced by liberal Jews. Since Passover is the Festival of Freedom\, the Haggadah has been often used as a vehicle for responses to historical events and connections with special causes related to social justice or specifically with Jewish issues. \nThe talk will explore cause Haggadot that connect with civil rights\, labor\, hunger\, refugees\, and climate change\, and Jewish causes that revolve around Jewish liberation\, women and LGBTQ issues\, the Holocaust\, Soviet Jewry\, Israel-Palestine\, and leftist secularism. \nAbout the Speaker\nHollis Granoff Landauer is a collector of nontraditional Haggadot. She holds a B.A. from Mt. Holyoke\, an M.A. in Near Eastern languages and literatures from UCLA\, and a library degree from Simmons College.

She has presented about pre-state kibbutz Haggadot and Holocaust-era Haggadot at Fordham in the past.

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.

The conversation will pick up last year’s discussion on how certain environmental issues disproportionately affect certain populations due to income\, race\, geography\, or the economy. These effects can have severe outcomes—ranging from interrupted telecommunications and transportation to devastating losses\, including shelter\, food\, energy\, and ultimately life. This conversation will bring together voices from Fordham alumni and local leaders and experts in the field.
