Mass challah baking to support Madiba Numerous challot, baked by Jewish women, were delivered to the Ithlokomeng Old Age Home in Alexandra township, last week, after a mass challah baking evening to show support for ailing former President Nelson Mandela and his family. The project, initiated by the SAJBD and run in partnership with Emunah, represented a Jewish way of praying for the recovery of someone seriously ill. SAJBD National Director Wendy Kahn, who was one of some 50 participants, explained the tradition for women to collectively bake challot, invoking the spiritual significance of each ingredient. One hundred and twenty three challot were delivered to Ithlokomeng and Phutaditshaba Facility for the Aged.

  • The Threats from China
    The threats from China - A case study over how the Swedish media respond and is affected by threats and harassment from Chinese authorities Julia Grip Two-year Political Science MA programme in Global Politics and Societal Change Dept. of Global Political Studies Course: Political Science Master's thesis ST631L (30 credits) Spring Semester 2020 Supervisor: Ivan Gusic A warm thank you! To my supervisor Ivan Gusic, who has guided me through the process of writing this thesis, helped me to elaborate my ideas and been supportive when I needed advice. To my interview participants, who openly have shared their experiences with me and have given me their time, in order to help me write this thesis. To my family, friends, former colleagues and colleagues whom have encouraged me, gave me helpful comments, good tips and provided feedback whenever I needed. Abstract In 2018, there was clear evidence that Sweden was targeted of China’s attempts to influence their media. The Chinese embassy started criticising Swedish news reporting through insults or even threats. Since 2017 the Chinese ambassador has been summoned more than 40 times to the Swedish foreign department for his spiteful attacks on the media. This thesis examines how the Swedish media has responded and is affected by threats and harassment from Chinese authorities from 2018 to 2020. The thesis is based on interviews with 10 participants from the Swedish media, and documents. The thesis shows, that threats and harassment from Chinese authorities is a unique behaviour from a state towards the Swedish media. The response to the threats and harassment is seen through strategies of adding security, showing solidarity and support and showing resistance.

  • Representations of Suicide Bombing
    REPRESENTATIONS OF SUICIDE BOMBING! As in any colonial triumph, the colonized are expendable and, interiorizing his/her domination, know themselves as such. It should be noted that the control of the body has always been one of the master obsessions of the colonial mind, a fixation engendered by the recognition of colonialism’s outer limit. The Palestinians who annihilate themselves in order to kill would appear to face a condition in which their suicidal choice has become ontologically – and not only strategically – the only one available.! !

    BRIAN BENDER (trombone, keyboards, melodica, composer, bandleader) Brian Bender & Little Shop of Horas Original and traditional Jewish melodies blended with Latin, African, Caribbean and Middle Eastern rhythms Brian has performed in Egypt, Israel, the Cape Verde Islands, Alaska, France, the United Kingdom, Italy and throughout the United States. He has also performed at Carnegie Hall and the Presidential Inauguration of Bill Clinton. “Brian Bender….the most-requested Klezmer trombone in the Northeast USA.” “Brian Bender's trombone is an entire horn section, when needed, by himself.” - Ari Davidov, Klezmershack “On the aptly titled ‘Eyn Velt’ (which means ‘One World’), Brian Bender achieves several landmarks. For one, he gathers some of the greatest Klezmer and non-Klezmer musicians in the world, including trumpeter Frank London and violinist Alicia Svigals of the Klezmatics and the saxophonist Charles Neville of the famed New Orleans group, the Neville Brothers. The dozens of other musicians on hand from all traditions testify to Bender’s universal musical world-view, as does the music they make: World Music with Jewish roots.” “Bender exhibited his inventive streak, exploring new possibilities for the trombone in the ensemble, as melody or rhythm instrument, and for the melodica, a breath-powered keyboard from which he elicited a particularly ancient sound.” - Seth Rogovoy, author of “The Essential Klezmer” Host of “The Klezmer Hour” radio show "Lovingly brings back the rhythms and sounds of our ancestors as the sounds of today. Some wonderful unexpected twists, like a tangy latin version of the yiddish chestnut "Shloimele, Malkele" and a Rastafarian approach to a traditional Bobover Hasidic processional." - Dr.

Nous proposons une réflexion sur les différents niveaux de lecture (littérale, symbolique, médiatique, idéologique...) apportés à cette œuvre, les conceptions de l'art et l'importance accordée à l'art selon les protagonistes — tout en évitant de marquer un parti pris politique. Nous avons essayé de comprendre l'événement, ce qu'il révèle d'une décadence de l'art aujourd'hui, à partir de l'aveuglement devant l'art dont aura fait preuve un ambassadeur, mais aussi à partir de la dimension expressive que revêt l'acte terroriste, de la disparition des autorités dans le domaine artistique, de la lecture littérale par les médias.
