SUMMARY:Hasidic Women in the Media
DESCRIPTION:In a compelling lecture performance\, author Jessica Roda presents themes from\nher groundbreaking book _For Women and Girls Only_ \, joined by actress\,\nwriter\, and producer Malky Goldman—the book’s remarkable protagonist. The\nevent offers a nuanced exploration of the representation of Hasidic female\nidentity in media\, on screen\, and on stage. Goldman\, who was raised in the\nultra-Orthodox neighborhood of Mea Shearim in Jerusalem\, shares her deeply\npersonal journey navigating the arts from within and beyond the boundaries of\nher Hasidic upbringing. Through dialogue\, multimedia\, and live performance\,\nthe evening exposes the tensions between tradition and self-expression\,\nvisibility and erasure\, community expectations and artistic freedom. Roda\ncontextualizes Goldman’s story within broader questions of gender\, religion\,\nand representation\, challenging reductive portrayals of Hasidic women in\nmainstream media. Goldman’s voice—grounded\, creative\, and courageous—offers a\npowerful counter-narrative\, reclaiming agency and complexity for Hasidic\nfemale identities on public stages. The performance invites audiences to\nreconsider assumptions and listen to stories often silenced or misunderstood. \nOrganized by: U-M Frankel Center for Judaic Studies \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/13938

SUMMARY:Jewish Journalism in Dark Times
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a roundtable discussion exploring the transformation of Jewish\njournalism during the interwar years (1918–1939) and World War II\, an era of\nprofound upheaval. Panelists will analyze how Jewish newspapers and journals\nbecame vital platforms for political\, literary\, and cultural engagement. The\ndiscussion will highlight dramatic shifts in journalistic practices\, including\nevolving editorial strategies\, reporting methods\, and technological\ninnovations in format and distribution and the transnational and transcultural\nelements that come to the fore during that time. Panelists will also examine\nthe economic pressures and opportunities that shaped the Jewish press\, and\nconsider the influence and role of Jews as journalists within the broader\nmedia landscape. \n**Gilad Halpern** \, journalist and media historian\, draws on recent doctoral\nresearch on The Palestine Post amid imperial decline and rising nationalism\,\nbridging professional and scholarly perspectives.**Naomi Brenner** explores\nentertainment fiction in the Hebrew and Yiddish press\, focusing on the\naesthetics and politics of the roman-feuilleton as a transnational literary\nform.**Matthew Handelman** investigates the cultural politics of German Jewish\nintellectuals and the primacy of culture in political discourse from the\nWeimar Republic onward. \nCentral to the conversation is the role of Jewish periodicals as spaces for\ncultural expression\, literary experimentation\, and political debate. These\npublications not only documented Jewish life\, but also actively shaped\nidentities\, fostered transnational dialogue\, and provided forums for writers\,\nartists\, and intellectuals grappling with questions of survival and belonging.\nThis roundtable offers timely insights into journalism during a time of\ncrisis\, illuminating enduring questions about Jews and media. \nOrganized by: U-M Frankel Center for Judaic Studies \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/13936
