Roy Shukrun onderzocht hoe de Marokkaans-Joodse identiteit zich na de Tweede Wereldoorlog ontwikkelde en een nieuwe betekenis kreeg. De escalatie van de oorlog in Israël en Palestina na 7 oktober 2023 geeft zijn onderzoek een extra lading. „De geschiedenis van Marokko bewijst dat vreedzaam samenleven mogelijk is.” buff.ly/7FTaoNf

De synagoge aan de Folkingestraat in Groningen is een bruisend centrum voor Joods leven in de stad. Naast een gebedshuis is het een plek waar mensen kunnen kennismaken met Joodse cultuur. De NCAB bracht een bezoek aan de @SynagogeGroningen en kreeg een rondleiding. Tijdens het werkbezoek werd gesproken met (bestuurs-)leden van verschillende Joodse gemeenten in het land en de Stichting Folkingestraat Synagoge. Het gesprek richtte zich onder meer op het cruciale belang van educatie als tegengif tegen antisemitisme.

I usually avoid making public statements that could be considered political, but as an academic, it is sometimes important to step outside one's comfort zone. trouw.nl/cs-b48ad494/

I want to thank @MOhadIsrael & @Jerusalem_Post for highlighting the new @WorldJewishCong exhibition on MENA Jewish legacy. This piece captures our mission to give a broader understanding of Jewish history that honors all its threads. m.jpost.com/judaism/articl…

@hchesner @TwoSetViolin @PerlmanOfficial @raychenviolin Exactly !!! Curious if the violin giants I tagged will respond 😅

@sashargs @TwoSetViolin @PerlmanOfficial @raychenviolin I just love that you can post this to Twitter because there's *NO WAY* that the passionate violinist would be on this antiquated platform ;)

If I wanted to surprise a passionate 16 year old violinist with a really nice (sturdy, light, backpack style) violin case what should I buy? *Note* she already has a serious violin and bow, so now it needs to be protected in style. @TwoSetViolin @PerlmanOfficial @raychenviolin

@hchesner I feel like you share these things just for me 💕

Love this translation of the Selihot to Dutch - very early for Jews in the Netherlands to be speaking Dutch, in my understanding, though...it was mostly Spanish, Portuguese, or Yiddish, depending on land of origin. (Also, the book was written for a woman, per engraving) twitter.com/culhebrewmss/s…

My translation of Tea Arciszewska's poem "The Silver Candlesticks" is out with @ingeveb, in time for Yom Kippur. Arciszewska meditates on Yom Kippur candles and memories of a lost prewar world from her standpoint as a Holocaust survivor in Paris. @uclhjs #212280-fn-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">ingeveb.org/texts-and-tran…
