SUMMARY:U-M Frankel Center Event - Hila Amit Guest Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Queer Belongings and the Jewish “Homeland”: Israeli and Jewish American Lives Between Home and Away\n\nDr. Hila Amit (Thomas Mann House Fellow) in conversation about intersections of queerness\, migration\, and identity in the context of Israel/Palestine and the Jewish diaspora.\n\n\n\n\nThrough a blend of fiction and academic inquiry\, Amit examines the ways queer Jewish lives challenge and reimagine narratives of homeland\, belonging\, and migration. \nIn her academic book “A Queer Way Out: The Politics of Queer Emigration from Israel (SUNY\, 2018)\, Amit explores the story of queer Israeli emigrants. Drawing on extensive fieldwork in Berlin\, London\, and New York\, she examined motivations for departure and feelings of unbelonging to the Israeli national collective. Amit showed that sexual orientation and left-wing political affiliation play significant roles in decisions to leave. Amit investigated how queer Israeli emigrants question national and heterosexual norms such as army service\, monogamy\, and reproduction\, in their decision to leave Israel. In her new research project\, Amit is conducting interviews with queer Jewish Americans grappling with notions of Homeland and Belonging\, particularly in the wake of the October 7th events and their profound global reverberations. \nMeanwhile\, her two fiction books center on queer experiences in Israel/Palestine\, offering intimate\, layered portrayals of life at the margin of society. Her new fiction work deals with a possible loss of the Hebrew language and a possible obsolescence of the state of Israel. \nThe conversation with Amit will delve into how these themes converge in Amit’s creative and scholarly practices. It will explore the tensions between rootedness and mobility\, the impact of historical trauma on personal and collective identity\, and the possibilities for imagining alternative futures through queer lenses. Amit will also reflect on the role of storytelling—fictional and academic—as a tool for navigating the complexities of identity\, belonging\, and resistance in times of upheaval.

SUMMARY:U-M Frankel Center Event: Wieseneck Symposium on Queer Israeli Culture
DESCRIPTION:The Gayle & Larry Wieseneck Symposium is an annual conference hosted by the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies to explore various topics relating to Israel and to look at Israel in multiple contexts. This year\, the 2024-25 Frankel Institute for Advanced Judaic Studies\, themed “Queer/Trans/Jewish\,” is bringing in scholars from Canada\, Israel\, and all over the USA\, to examine the broad topic of Queer Israeli Culture. Come for just one session\, or stay the whole day! You especially don’t want to miss the evening’s finale: a special performance by spoken word artist Yossi Zabari (pictured) at 8:30 PM. \nSESSION 1: MINI-MANUSCRIPT WORKSHOP – 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM (Lunch included for participants. RSVP HERE) \nShirly Bahar (Columbia)\, Yigal Nizri (University of Toronto)\, and Frankel Institute Head Fellow Bryan Roby\, will first analyze and discuss pre-circulated material and chapter excerpts. Please RSVP for this workshop to receive the recommended reading. In the second half of this workshop\, Institute Fellow Sivan Rajuan-Shtang and guest scholar Tamar Sella (University of North Texas) will present their working manuscripts for audience feedback. Lunch will be included for workshop participants. \nSESSION 2: ANTI-TRANS RHETORIC IN ISRAEL IN CONTEMPORARY & HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE – 3 – 4:45 PM \nTamar ben David (Ben-Gurion University of the Negev)\, Iris Rachamimov (Frankel Institute)\, and Amal Ziv (Ben-Gurion University of the Negev) gather for a Q&A roundtable discussion with symposium participants to discuss anti-trans rhetoric in Israel. \nSESSION 3: QUEER TEMPORALITY IN ARAB-JEWISH POETRY – 5:30 – 7:15 PM \nHow can cultural expression transcend spatial and temporal boundaries to reconnect with distant pasts? This panel with Frankel Institute Head Fellow Bryan Roby and Fellow Oren Yirmiya\, and guest scholar Tamar Sella (University of North Texas) explores how contemporary queer Mizrahi and Arab-Jewish artists with roots in Jewish communities of the Muslim world reimagine and manifest historical periods and geographical spaces through their creative work. Through analysis of poetry\, music\, and performance by artists including Igal Mizrahi\, Yossi Zabbari\, and Loren Milk\, the panelists examine how these creators bridge temporal and spatial distances to manifest seemingly impossible connections between past and present\, here and there. \nSESSION 4: SPOKEN WORD PERFORMANCE BY YOSSI ZABARI – 8:30 – 9:30 PM \nYossi Zabari is a writer and spoken word artist who has conquered the Internet time and again with viral videos that are catchier than the Black Plague. Zabari is also a theater actor\, stand-up comedian and proud gay father.

SUMMARY:U-M Frankel Center Event - Symposium on Critical Transgender Studies
DESCRIPTION:Join the 2024-25 Frankel Institute Fellows for three panels featuring guest scholars from the USA\, Canada\, and Israel\, all exploring various intersections of their respective studies under this year’s theme\, “Queer/Trans/Jewish.” \nPlease RSVP for the conference here: https://forms.gle/LMxfURuR5vaKGAy97 \nPANEL 1: TRANS BEFORE THE “MODERN” – 10:30 AM – 12:30 PM\nModerated by Simone Stirner\, Panelists: Jessie deGrado\, Dorothy Kim (Brandeis University)\, Scott Larson\, Rafe Neis\, Max Strassfeld \nPanel participants will engage in a conversation on several themes at the intersection of transing\, asexuality\, and Judaic studies in the premodern era. Questions will include how studying the past can denaturalize modern-contemporary gender categories\, how transing as an approach is distinct from contemporary definitions of trans-ness\, and how a trans framework can help us problematize the category of modernity itself \nPANEL 2: TRANS EMBODIMENT IN MODERNITY – 1:30 – 3:30 PM\nModerated by Sheer Ganor\, Panelists: Rafael Balling\, Gil Engelstein\, and Shira Schwartz (Northwestern University) \nThis panel explores questions and debates that emerge at the axis of Jewish and trans experiences in the modern world. Reflecting through their research expertise and beyond\, speakers will discuss themes including visibility and its discontents\, linkages\, and tensions between trans and Jewish identities\, and the challenges that communities face in light of unprecedented attacks on trans people. \nPANEL 3: QUEER THEORY – 4:00 – 6:00 PM\nModerated by Rovel Sequiera\, Panelists: Adi Saleem and Amal Ziv

SUMMARY:U-M Frankel Center Event - Riv-Ellen Prell Guest Lecture\, "Jews\, the Academy\, and Antisemitism: How and What Should We Study?"
DESCRIPTION:Jews\, the Academy\, and Antisemitism: How and What Should We Study?\n\n\nGuest Lecturer: Riv-Ellen Prell (University of Minnesota Twin Cities)\nPLEASE RSVP HERE: https://myumi.ch/qZ8XE \n\n\n\n\nAntisemitism on American campuses\, both before and following the attack by Hamas on Israel on October 7\, 2023 is one of nation’s key polarizing issues\, acting as a magnet for virtually every political conflict. The current claims and counter-claims about campus antisemitism require far more careful analysis than is afforded by many of the current debates. \nI am interested in opening a conversation about these issues that will examine a broader understanding of the social field in which these debates are currently situated. Some of the components of the social field will include the complex history of Jews in American higher education\, the transformations in scholarship created by the political movements of the 1970s that have been both critical to creating the field of Jewish studies and contemporary theorizing of Israel and Palestine\, and the related political fight to define antisemitism\, including the partisans driving this fight outside of academia. \nFinally\, I will turn to recent survey research on Jewish and non-Jewish students’ attitudes and experiences on American campuses that reveals far more complex findings than anticipated by the sociologists who conducted the research. There is an urgent need for scholars to engage research about campus antisemitism with far greater nuance and assertiveness than currently exists. \nRiv-Ellen Prell\, an anthropologist\, is Emerita Professor of American Studies at the University of Minnesota. She is the author of Fighting to Become Americans: Jews\, Gender and the Anxiety of Assimilation and Prayer and Community: the Havurah in American Judaism. Among other works\, she has edited Women Remaking American Judaism. \nHer scholarly essays\, articles and reviews\, at the intersection of anthropology and history\, engage questions of how American Jewish cultures have been shaped by work\, family\, gender\, antisemitism\, and religious and cultural innovation. In 2017 she curated both a physical and digital exhibition “A Campus Divided: Progressives\, Anticommunists\, Racism and Antisemitism at the University of Minnesota: 1920-1934.” The exhibition was the most widely attended in the University’s history\, which resulted in a student protest movement that called for major transformations in memorialization and priorities at the University of Minnesota. She continues work on digital and public history.
