Multiculturalism, Jewish Marginalization and Gender
Title: "Multiculturalism, Jewish Marginalization and Gender"
Date: April 8, 2015
Speaker: Jennifer Roskies
Affiliation: Jerusalem Center of Public Affairs
Location: McGill University, Montreal, Canada
Description: Jennifer Roskies examines why the focus of the majority of Jewish scholarship is largely to look inward - within Jewish society - while largely omitting the effect of the Jews on American society. This omission also pertains to Jewish women and Jewish feminist studies. Roskies notes that this omission of Jews – both women and men – from American multicultural studies research leaves a gap in our understanding of American modernity as well as a full understanding of American and North American Jewry.
