SUMMARY:Jewish Book Series: Lunch & Learn with Ayelet Tsabari
DESCRIPTION:Please join us at the JCC on **Thursday\, March 26** from **12:00-1:30 PM** for\nan in-person Lunch & Learn and a virtual visit from Ayelet Tsabari\, the author\nof _Songs for the Brokenhearted: A Novel._ Enjoy a delicious Yemeni lunch\nwhile listening to Ayelet speak about her book over Zoom. **Lunch starts at\nnoon\, author talk begins promptly at 12:30 PM.** \nThis event is part of the JCC’s ongoing **Book Series** \, where visiting\nJewish authors give talks on their work to bring new ideas and literature to\nthe community. **The cost of this program is $12.50/person.** This program is\nsponsored by ORT. Zoom available upon request. \n_JCC community events and programs are open to all regardless of faith or\nbackground. All are welcome._ \n**_Book Blurb_** \n1950. Thousands of Yemeni Jews have immigrated to the newly founded Israel in\nsearch of a better life. In an overcrowded immigrant camp in Rosh Ha’ayin\,\nYaqub\, a shy young man\, happens upon Saida\, a beautiful girl singing by the\nriver. In the midst of chaos and uncertainty\, they fall in love. But they\nweren’t supposed to; Saida is married and has a child\, and a married woman has\nno place befriending another man. \n1995. Thirty-something Zohara\, Saida’s daughter\, has been living in New York\nCity—a city that feels much less complicated than Israel\, where she grew up\nwishing that her skin was lighter\, that her illiterate mother’s Yemeni music\nwas quieter\, and that the father who always favored her was alive. She hasn’t\nlooked back since leaving home\, rarely in touch with her mother or sister\,\nLizzie\, and missing out on her nephew Yoni’s childhood. But when Lizzie calls\nto tell her their mother has died\, she gets on a plane to Israel with no\nreturn ticket. \nSoon Zohara finds herself on an unexpected path that leads to shocking truths\nabout her family—including dangers that lurk for impressionable young men and\nsecrets that force her to question everything she thought she knew about her\nparents\, her heritage\, and her own future. \nOrganized by: JCC of Greater Ann Arbor \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/14346

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

SUMMARY:When Hebrew Met the Machine
DESCRIPTION:What happens when an ancient language meets modern technology? This lecture\nwill discuss the role played by media technologies—such as the phonograph\,\ntypewriters\, the telegraph\, and computers—in the revitalization and\nmodernization of Hebrew since the end of the nineteenth century. After lying\ndormant for two millennia as a mainly written language\, Hebrew awoke from its\nliterary slumber and became a living modern vernacular. The revitalization of\nHebrew is unique and unprecedented in world history\, and it has been studied\nin various fields; but the role of modern media technologies in mediating this\nrevival has not yet been considered. This lecture will delve into questions\nsuch as: what was the role of sound recording technologies in shaping the\nreemerging modern Hebrew speech? And how did the Hebraized typewrite pushed\nfor the modernization of writing in Hebrew?. It will show how these media\,\nwhose emergence ran in historical parallel to the revitalization of Hebrew\,\nwere an active force in shaping the language as a modern communicative medium.\nHebrew was a historical media lab: written from right to left and in unique\nscript\, it posed technical as well as conceptual challenges to media which\nwere originally designed for Latin script and Western writing systems. The\nadaptation of these technologies to Hebrew required various adaptations that\nshaped lingual mechanisms\, which had social and political ramifications on the\nemerging Hebrew culture. \nOrganized by: U-M Frankel Center for Judaic Studies \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/13596
