Wow; incredibly honoured that my book is part of this essay in @nybooks with @ElissaBemporad and @Veidlinger. 1/3
Three recent books conclude that the anti-Jewish pogroms following World War I help to explain what would take place a generation later. @MagdaTeter reviews them in our latest issue. go.nybooks.com/3yWXpPt

I am excited to be singing Five Hebrew Love Songs, by Hila Plittman and Eric Whitacre, in concert soon with Opus 48. These poems and their setting make me think about the Song of Songs, modern Israeli culture, and Jewish entanglement with European music over centuries.
Our next highlight is #Whitacre's beautiful Five Hebrew Love Songs... ❤️🧡💛💚💙
We are super excited to be joined by violinist Louisa Fuller to perform this wonderful miniatures 👏

If you live in Britain, chances are you’ll associate Jews with the current war and with Auschwitz. Maybe, if you’re religious, the OT. My 2 cents on why we need a month dedicated to Britain’s Jewry and who should lead it. @JewishStudiesUK thejc.com/lets-talk/why-we-n… via @JewishChron

I wrote this as a micro-contribution to the current moment. Old ideas with perhaps just a tiny bit of new relevance for some...
NEW: Though a product of Zionism, Jewish territorialism became one of its main critics in the early 20th century. Its history teaches us something about what Zionism is, but also about what it could have been, writes @LauraAlmagor. newlinesmag.com/essays/the-m…

Derek Penslar, a scholar of Zionism, anti-Zionism + antisemitism, runs Harvard's Jewish Studies Center. So why isn't he on Harvard's new antisemitism task force? Because, like most antisemitism scholars, he doesn't want to suppress pro-Palestinian speech. jewishcurrents.org/harvard-i…
