- A new blog by an African-American Jewish man living in Crown Heights called 'Zein Shver.' He only has one entry so far, about his decision to participate in a project exploring his experience around the word 'shvartse.' It's an interesting read and I hope he'll continue to write more about life as Black Jewish hasid.
- What exactly does 'Ladino' refer to? I wasn't aware that this was in question, but an interesting post over at the University of Washington Stroum Center for Jewish Studies lays a little knowledge on us.
- And there's only five days left to contribute to the IndieGogo campaign to bring The Megile of Itzik Manger back to the stage via Motl Didner and the Folksbiene. DO IT!!!
Brilliant idea this weekend selection!
ReplyDeleteLooks like Zein Shver is an instant hit, isn't it? And the discussion there! Some of the comments are a bit...well...awkward in my opinion.
