SUMMARY:Performance: Meet Max Spitzkopf
DESCRIPTION:Before Sherlock Holmes had fans across the Jewish world\, there was Max Spitzkopf\, a brilliant\, sharp-tongued detective whose adventures captivated Yiddish readers across Europe and the diaspora a century ago. Clever\, curious\, and fueled by intellect and chutzpah\, Spitzkopf was a cultural phenomenon\, until history pushed his stories to the margins. \nNow\, for the first time\, one volume of these classic mysteries\, Adventures of Max Spitzkopf: The Yiddish Sherlock Holmes\, has been newly translated into English and brought thrillingly to life on stage at The Vilna. \nJoin acclaimed Yiddish stage actor Mikhl Yashinsky for a theatrical performance that revives this forgotten sleuth for a modern audience. Through humor\, suspense\, and rich cultural nuance\, Yashinsky explores what a Yiddish detective can teach us about justice\, morality\, identity\, and the enduring power of storytelling. \nThe evening is accompanied by live klezmer-inspired music from the Abigale Reisman Trio\, creating an immersive journey into the smokey cafes and bustling streets of old-world Europe\, where wit\, courage\, and sharp observation solve even the most confounding cases. \nFollowing the performance\, Lisa Newman\, Director of Publications at the Yiddish Book Center and White Goat Press\, will join us for a conversation about the performance and Q&A with the artists. \nPresented in partnership with The Yiddish Book Center and White Goat Press. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Intermediate Yiddish: Virtual
DESCRIPTION:Build confidence in your Yiddish – reading\, speaking\, and listening\, in a supportive and welcoming classroom of intermediate Yiddish students. We’ll focus on building reading fluency\, comprehension strategies\, dictionary skills\, and making meaning from texts while enjoying selections from the canon of Yiddish literature. In this class\, you will find abundant opportunities to stretch and grow your Yiddish. We’ll read slowly\, translate continuously\, and look up every unfamiliar word as we read (in Yiddish) and discuss (in English and Yiddish) literature together. This semester\, we’ll continue reading the memoirs of 19th-century feminist icon Puah Rakovsky\, whose spellbinding tell-all memoir describes her experiences of arranged marriage\, teen motherhood\, rejecting her religious upbringing\, divorcing her parents’ son-in-law\, starting a career\, and becoming one of the world’s first women’s rights activists. \nLearn more and register here.

SUMMARY:Intermediate Yiddish: Virtual
DESCRIPTION:Build confidence in your Yiddish – reading\, speaking\, and listening\, in a supportive and welcoming classroom of intermediate Yiddish students.

This semester\, we’ll continue reading the memoirs of 19th-century feminist icon Puah Rakovsky\, whose spellbinding tell-all memoir describes her experiences of arranged marriage\, teen motherhood\, rejecting her religious upbringing\, divorcing her parents’ son-in-law\, starting a career\, and becoming one of the world’s first women’s rights activists. \nLearn more and register here.

SUMMARY:Collective Liberation Workshop with artist Julie Weitz
DESCRIPTION:Led by The Psychedelic Tzadik—the drag king persona of artist Julie Weitz—participants are invited to transform existential tsuris (trouble) into creative discovery through clowning\, storytelling\, and embodied improvisation. Drawing from Yiddish culture\, Hasidic wisdom\, and drag\, this participatory experience offers a playful yet profound space to explore identity\, justice\, and cultural memory. Together\, we confront personal and collective challenges while embracing the joy\, absurdity\, and radical potential of clowning. \nCurrently based in Berlin\, Julie Weitz (she/her) is an artist\, writer\, and educator who creates embodied\, collective experiences for repair by unearthing the wounds and resilience of diasporic culture. Her research-driven practice animates figures from Yiddish folklore\, exploring themes of loss and healing through their interactions at culturally significant sites—especially those where Yiddish culture was nearly eradicated.Through caricature\, folklorism\, and emplacement\, Weitz situates her practice within evolving trajectories of Jewish cultural expression\, in solidarity with global liberation movements. \nThis event is co-sponsored by Boston Workers Circle. Please share with anyone who’d be interested! Click here to register. The suggested sliding scale for this workshop is $18–48\, and nobody will be turned away for lack of funds. Donations will go directly to the artist to cover supplies and labor. Also\, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to Free Gaza Circus. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Aging in Community
DESCRIPTION:Email AIC@circleboston.org for more information\, including the Zoom link. \nThis month\, members of AIC are encouraged to join the moderated discussion of the book\, One Day Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This. See the details below: \nThe social justice committees of Boston Workers Circle are sponsoring two moderated discussions of the 2025 National Book Award winner\, One Day Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This\, by Canadian author Omar El Akkad. \nPart memoir\, the work details El Akkad’s upbringing in Qatar and his immigration to the West\, where he initially believed in the “American dream” before his career as a journalist—covering the War on Terror\, Ferguson\, and Black Lives Matter—began to erode that belief. It touches on the issues that our social justice committees seek to address: the inhuman way that we treat immigrants\, the racism against Muslims and nonwhites\, the economic injustice in our country\, the slaughter in Gaza and the failure of the West to speak out against it. It is a powerful and thought-provoking look at Western hypocrisy and our own roles in that. \nThere will be an in-person discussion on Sunday\, March 22 from 10:45 am to 12:15 pm during the Shule session in Brookline. \nThere will be a Zoom discussion on Tuesday\, March 24\, from 7:00 to 8:30 pm. \nRegistration is required for either session. After indicating whether you wish to attend the in-person session or the Zoom session\, you’ll receive either the location specifics or the Zoom link\, as appropriate. \nWe have found that even if there is a waiting list at your library to get the book\, the list moves quickly and you should be able to get the book if you request it ASAP. It is powerful\, but not long. It is available from your local independent bookstore in hardback for approximately $28\, or as an eBook for $15. \nQuestions? Send them to: migolden57@gmail.com \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Material Witness: A Mixed Media Exhibition/Discussion - Exploring my mother's experience during the Holocaust and the parallels immigrants are living through today.
DESCRIPTION:Through Nancy Marks’ art and poetry\, Material Witness confronts the chilling parallels between her mothers’s hiding in France in the 1940s and the realities faced by immigrants today. The echoes between the 1940s and our contemporary world are undeniable and demand witness. This mixed-media installation\, which premiered in Boston in 2025\,  features twenty-five drypoint prints and original poems. The images invite viewers to see them through a dual lens: ‘then’ and ‘now.’ What befell Jews\, Roma\, leftists\, and so many others targeted in that era resonates starkly with the experiences of immigrants navigating hostile systems and rhetoric today. Material Witness presents interwoven histories\, holding the pain of the past alongside the urgencies of the present.  \nViewing of the exhibit will be accompanied by a discussion with the artist. Drinks and snacks will be provided. \nThis event is being sponsored by the Jewish Muslim Solidarity Committee\, the Immigrant Justice Committee\, the Israel Palestine Committee\, and the Yiddish Committee.

SUMMARY:“From Margin to Center\, From Opposition to Power” - a Conversation with Dove Kent on her Vision for the Jewish Left
DESCRIPTION:At the Conference on the Jewish Left in February\, Dove Kent presented a provocative talk. (View the recording here.) Join Dove and BWC’s Israel Palestine Committee on April 14 from 7:30 to 9:00pm on Zoom for a deep dive on how we go “From Margin to Center\, From Opposition to Power”.  \nIn her talk\, Dove asserts that it is time for the Jewish Left to advance a vision for fighting antisemitism in the context of fighting all oppressions\, in a multiracial democratic movement.  It’s time for the Jewish Left to lead a coalition that replaces the “legacy” Jewish organizations\, currently in disarray due to their failed strategy of aligning with the U.S. right and exceptionalizing Jews. Since these organizations no longer speak for the majority of U.S. Jews\, the U.S. Jewish Left (the most organized in the world) has an opportunity to build a movement based on Jewish values.  \nJoin us as BWC Executive Director\, Rebecca Zimmerman Hornstein\, moderates a Q&A session where Dove will elaborate on the ideas she presented at the Conference as\, together\, we explore next steps for BWC and like-minded Jewish Left institutions. \nDove Kent has two decades of experience in grassroots organizing\, political education\, and movement building. She served as the Executive Director of Jews for Racial & Economic Justice\, Senior Strategy Officer at Bend the Arc\, co-Founder of Tzedek Lab\, and currently as the Interim International Executive Director of Diaspora Alliance. Dove is a nationally recognized leader and teacher on dismantling antisemitism and has been published in anthologies and news outlets including The Guardian\, NPR\, Ha’aretz\, and Jewish Currents. She is the co-author of the culture-shifting publication “Understanding Antisemitism: An Offering to our Movement.” \nRegister here: bit.ly/DoveKentConvo

For most of our community members\, if we want a Yiddish-speaking environment\, we have to proactively create one—so that’s what we’re doing! Here are some guidelines for being part of a language-immersion activity. \nAsking how to say something? Perfectly fine; we do this all the time. Tossing in a short English word or phrase—especially an idiom or quote—while keeping the conversation in Yiddish? Common among American Yiddish speakers and also perfectly fine. However\, we ask participants to avoid telling anecdotes or otherwise speaking in English for an extended period of time. Conversing in English disrupts the Yiddish-language environment\, and it takes away learning opportunities for students. Yiddish speakers and students at all levels are welcome at farbreng. It’s normal to feel nervous about your Yiddish\, but we applaud and encourage all students and speakers to use Yiddish. If you have any questions about the program\, please write to us at farbreng-boston@yugntruf.org \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:"Let’s Build a Room for Hope" Grief & Healing YA Community Care Session
DESCRIPTION:We are living in a time of immense grief and political oversaturation. From events unfolding abroad—like the wars in Gaza and Ukraine—to the rise of authoritarianism in the U.S.\, layered on top of personal grief\, burnout\, and loss\, it can feel like the weight never really lets up. This is the backdrop of our lives as we move into adulthood: building relationships\, careers\, and identities at a time when the future often feels bleak\, unstable\, and deeply uncertain. \nAnd yet\, even in this moment\, there are real possibilities for hope—hope rooted in connection\, collective care\, radical compassion\, and meaningful action. \nWhat are you grieving right now? How do Jewish values and ways of thinking help you make sense of that grief? How does being Jewish connect you to community\, sustain hope\, and shape how you show up in the world—especially when the path forward feels unclear? \nJoin us for a reflective\, grounded conversation on grief\, hope\, and healing in community\, inspired by “Let’s Build a Room for Hope” by Rabbi Miriam Grossman. Together\, we’ll create space to name what we’re holding\, connect with others navigating similar questions\, and explore how grief can be shared\, held\, and transformed into care\, solidarity\, and action. \nAbout Sammie: Sammie is a member of BWC and a doctoral student in psychology\, with a focus on liberation psychology and healing through radical compassion. She is deeply invested in community care\, inspired by Rabbi Miriam’s work\, and grateful to be holding this space together with BWC. \nRegister at https://bit.ly/ya0419

SUMMARY:Intermediate Yiddish: Virtual
DESCRIPTION:Build confidence in your Yiddish – reading\, speaking\, and listening\, in a supportive and welcoming classroom of intermediate Yiddish students. We’ll focus on building reading fluency\, comprehension strategies\, dictionary skills\, and making meaning from texts while enjoying selections from the canon of Yiddish literature. In this class\, you will find abundant opportunities to stretch and grow your Yiddish. We’ll read slowly\, translate continuously\, and look up every unfamiliar word as we read (in Yiddish) and discuss (in English and Yiddish) literature together. This semester\, we’ll continue reading the memoirs of 19th-century feminist icon Puah Rakovsky\, whose spellbinding tell-all memoir describes her experiences of arranged marriage\, teen motherhood\, rejecting her religious upbringing\, divorcing her parents’ son-in-law\, starting a career\, and becoming one of the world’s first women’s rights activists. \nLearn more and register here.

SUMMARY:Intermediate Yiddish: Virtual
DESCRIPTION:Build confidence in your Yiddish – reading\, speaking\, and listening\, in a supportive and welcoming classroom of intermediate Yiddish students. We’ll focus on building reading fluency\, comprehension strategies\, dictionary skills\, and making meaning from texts while enjoying selections from the canon of Yiddish literature. In this class\, you will find abundant opportunities to stretch and grow your Yiddish. We’ll read slowly\, translate continuously\, and look up every unfamiliar word as we read (in Yiddish) and discuss (in English and Yiddish) literature together. This semester\, we’ll continue reading the memoirs of 19th-century feminist icon Puah Rakovsky\, whose spellbinding tell-all memoir describes her experiences of arranged marriage\, teen motherhood\, rejecting her religious upbringing\, divorcing her parents’ son-in-law\, starting a career\, and becoming one of the world’s first women’s rights activists. \nLearn more and register here.
