SUMMARY:Adult Ed Course: Session 1
DESCRIPTION:Adult Ed Course: We Carry This In our Bodies: Navigating Family\, Trauma\, and Israel/Palestine\nAt a time when conversations about Israel/Palestine are deeply charged\, many of us struggle to stay in relationship with loved ones whose perspectives differ from our own. This three-part course will explore how American Jewish trauma lives in our bodies (based largely on the work of Resmaa Menakem)\, shapes our politics\, and shows up in interpersonal dynamics. Drawing on somatic practices\, historical context\, and scenario planning\, we’ll practice approaches for meaningful\, values-aligned conversations—along with tools for setting boundaries and caring for ourselves in the process. \nREGISTER HERE. \nCourse Sessions:All classes will be held in person at the BWC Building located at 6 Webster Street in Brookline\, MA. \nAll students are required to attend session #1\, but can choose which of the other sessions they attend. \nSession #1 – November 5 | 7-8:30PM: Diving into My Grandmother’s Hands as a source for healing Jewish trauma \nSession #2 – November 12 | 7-8:30PM: Understanding our own narratives and voices\, beginning to practice our fears \nSession #3: November 19 | 7-8:30PM: Scenario planning\, practice\, and closure (or non-closure)

SUMMARY:Advanced: Shtok Shraybt Vayter: Virtual
DESCRIPTION:We will read and discuss a selection of Fradl Shtok’s writing in Yiddish\, in a supportive environment that encourages each person to speak Yiddish freely and fearlessly to the best of their ability. Students who want to listen rather than read are welcome to join the class. Fradl Shtok (1890-1990) is an enigmatic and captivating writer of passionate poems\, sharply observed short stories\, and illuminating literary essays. Her short stories capture the nuances of shtetl and immigrant life\, peeling away the layers with revealing\, ironic perceptions. Shtok’s piercing poems – including her groundbreaking sonnets – are an innovation in Yiddish literature. Her poems are crafted with skill\, precision and attention to aesthetics that juxtaposes powerfully with the unrestrained desire that many of her poems embody. Studying Shtok’s texts in Yiddish enables the reader to savor the sensuous sounds\, skillful wordplay and musicality that are central to her writing. The course will offer cover a selection of short stories\, poems and critical writing by Fradl Shtok. \nLearn more and register here.

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.orgRegister here.

SUMMARY:RESCHEDULED Jewish Muslim Solidarity Committee Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Rescheduled for December 3rd. \nThe Jewish Muslim Solidarity Committee (JMS) works to build and strengthen constructive\, mutually supportive relations between Jews and Muslims in Greater Boston. It is especially focused on Muslims’ and Jews’ mutual interest in continuing to learn about and engage with one another\, including on difficult issues\, all the while recognizing our common interest in opposing all manifestations of Islamophobia and antisemitism\, by standing together in the face of any form of ethnic harassment.
