2019 Magazine T h e R o b e rt A . A n d S A n d ra S . b o R n S J ew i S h S T u d i e S P Ro g ra m Annual Magazine I Volume 47 I Fall 2019 From the Director “Continuity and change” might serve as the title for almost any year in the life of a Jewish Studies Program (JSP). Every year, we bid a sad farewell to wonderful graduating majors — like our remarkable seniors Harry Aaronson, Michelle Bennett, Naomi Farahan, Jordan Schiff and Margo Wagner. And every year, we are excited at the prospect of new majors entering the program; this fall, we’re particularly pleased that eight talented young individuals — many of them supported with generous scholarships — will be joining the JS B.A. class of 2023 from all over the USA, from Arizona, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Nebraska, and Washington. But this year, “continuity and change” has a deeper resonance for the Program than usual. I can’t think of a stronger symbol of continuity than our celebration of Alvin Rosenfeld’s 50 years at IU. To prepare my remarks for the event, generously hosted by Sandra and Bob Borns in the gorgeous Grand Hall at Union Station – Crowne Plaza in Indianapolis, I looked back through the JS archives. I was struck again by what a remarkable achievement it was to invent this world-leading program in south central Indiana. Of course, it wasn’t Alvin’s work alone – many friends, donors, faculty, and staff played a part — and in April, so many of them were on Mark Roseman hand to share in the moment and to witness President Michael McRobbie bestowing on our founding director the President’s Medal for Excellence, IU’s most prestigious award. But without Alvin’s vision, commitment, persistence and care, the Borns JSP would never have taken shape. If Alvin’s 50th embodied remarkable continuity, this was also a year of changes in our In This Issue faculty. Some were painful, most notably the loss to a distinguished chair at Dartmouth of 4 New Faculty our colleague Shaul Magid, the holder of the Jay and Jeanie Schottenstein Chair. With us since 2005, Shaul has, over the last fourteen years, emerged as one of the most innovative, 5 Olamot profound, wide-ranging, and productive thinkers on modern Judaism in the U.S. We will miss his 6 Upcoming 2019-2020 Events knowledge, collegiality, and mentorship, and wish him all the best in his new role. We also said 8 ISCA goodbye to our first-ever Olamot Visiting Fellow, the dynamic and delightful young historian of 10 2018-2019 Events Ottoman Jewry, Tamir Karkason. However, we are already looking forward to our second — the 11 Modern Hebrew Language art historian, Emma Gashinsky, who promises to bring a fresh set of ideas and courses to the Program next year. Our ambition is to raise the funds so that Olamot, our Center for Scholarly Program and Cultural Exchange with Israel, can continue to extend these invitations indefinitely. They are 12 Lives Reclaimed so important for young Israeli scholars and so enriching for us, and for the wider scholarly and 13 IU Press Jewish community. 14 Advisory Board Some changes were the opposite of painful. We were delighted (but not surprised) that Judah Cohen sailed through promotion to full professor this year, and Aziza Khazzoom 15 Donor Honor Roll similarly to tenure. The most exciting new development was undoubtedly our hiring of three 17 In Memoriam new scholars to join our faculty. At a challenging time for Colleges of Arts and Sciences at public 18 Graduate Student News universities, our Dean’s willingness to support three hires is testament to the central place JS 21 Scholarships/Fellowships enjoys at IU. Our new Alvin H. Rosenfeld Chair, Laura Carlson Hasler, is an outstanding young biblical scholar from Yale, who will provide much needed expertise on Hebrew Bible. We are 22 Undergraduate News also excited that Günther Jikeli, who had already made many friends here as a dynamic and 25 Course Offerings engaged visiting scholar, will join the Borns JSP and the Institute for the Study of Contemporary 26 Alumni News Antisemitism (ISCA) permanently as our firstErna B. Rosenfeld Professor. And last, but 28 Our Faculty not least, Irit Dekel, a wonderfully insightful analyst of Holocaust memory and antisemitism, currently placed in Berlin, will come to us as a joint appointment with Germanic Studies.

The 28th of April happens to be Alvin’s birthday, and Gale Nichols, a beautiful singer and cantor in her own right, sang “Happy Birthday” in Hebrew and English before a birthday cake was brought in. Another surprise for Alvin, the highlight of the evening, was the presentation by President McRobbie of the President’s Medal for Excellence. As well as celebrating Alvin’s unique contributions, the evening was testament to the generosity and vision of Bob and Sandra Borns. It was, after all, Bob who had remodeled the gorgeous Grand Hall back in the 1980s. Moreover, (a third surprise of the evening), in addition to hosting the event, Bob and Sandra also announced a substantial gift to the Erna B. Rosenfeld Professorship that Alvin has endowed in memory of his late wife. n Alvin Rosenfeld receives IU President’s Medal for Excellence from President Michael A. McRobbie. On April 28, over 160 guests gathered in the Grand Hall of Crowne Plaza Union Station, Indianapolis to celebrate Alvin Rosenfeld’s 50 years of service at IU. In addition to words from President Michael McRobbie and Provost Lauren Robel, our host Bob Borns, current Borns JSP Director Mark Roseman, and former Director Steve Weitzman also paid tribute to Alvin’s service and achievements over those fifty years. Alongside members of Alvin’s own family, guests included donors, many former students, current and former faculty, and senior members of the university administration. Though Alvin, Provost Lauren Robel, Bob Borns, Alvin Rosenfeld, First Lady Laurie Burns of course, knew of the celebration, the evening contained a number McRobbie, and President Michael A. McRobbie.

  • Israel, the Pro-Israel Lobby, American Jews and the Iran Deal
    Jonathan Rynhold Israel, the Pro-Israel Lobby, American Jews and the Iran deal American Jews were deeply divided over the 2015 Iran deal. Such divisions over Israel-related issues were nothing new. But this time the argument was not only particularly vitriolic, it was also especially significant because those in favor of the deal were confronting an Israeli consensus on an issue considered to be vital to Israeli security, a commitment to which was shared in principle by the overwhelming majority of American Jews who were skeptical of the agreement’s efficacy, even as they approved of it. This paper seeks to explain the cause of these divisions over the Iran deal and their political significance for Israel’s relations with American Jewry. Contrary to the terms of the core debate about the relationship of American Jews with Israel, which centers on the extent of American Jewish attachment to Israel, it argues that the key struggle was over the power to determine the political meaning of ‘pro-Israel’ in this critical context and that the divide was primarily a part of a wider partisan divide among Americans in general. In theoretical terms, “the authority to determine the shared meanings that constitute the identities, interests and practices… is perhaps the most subtle and most effective form of power because it encapsulates the institutional power to include or exclude, to legitimize and authorize”1. Strong and resilient shared meanings function as cultural ‘containers’ that serve as an important resource for mobilizing political support. The more robust the cultural container the more the political struggle is likely to be focused on interpreting and appropriating it to advance and legitimize a political agenda, rather than seeking to challenge it head-on.2 The pro-Israel orientation in American political culture is one such shared-meaning and it is centered on the American commitment to Israeli security.

    Nonprofit Security Grant Program Threat Incident Report: January 2019 to Present November 15, 2020 (Updated 02/22/2021) Prepared By: Rob Goldberg, Senior Director, Legislative Affairs [email protected] The following is a compilation of recent threat incidents, at home or abroad, targeting Jews and Jewish institutions (and other faith-based organization) that have been reported in the public record. When completing the Threat section of the IJ (Part III. Risk): ▪ First Choice: Describe specific terror (or violent homegrown extremist) incidents, threats, hate crimes, and/or related vandalism, trespass, intimidation, or destruction of property that have targeted its property, membership, or personnel. This may also include a specific event or circumstance that impacted an affiliate or member of the organization’s system or network. ▪ Second Choice: Report on known incidents/threats that have occurred in the community and/or State where the organization is located. ▪ Third Choice: Reference the public record regarding incidents/threats against similar or like institutions at home or abroad. Since there is limited working space in the IJ, the sub-applicant should be selective in choosing appropriate examples to incorporate into the response: events that are most recent, geographically proximate, and closely related to their type or circumstance of their organization or are of such magnitude or breadth that they create a significant existential threat to the Jewish community at large. I. Overview of Recent Federal Risk Assessments of National Significance Summary The following assessments underscore the persistent threat of lethal violence and hate crimes against the Jewish community and other faith- and community-based institutions in the United States.

  • Considerations for Non-Dominant Language Education in the Global South
    FIRE: Forum for International Research in Education Vol. 5, Iss. 3, 2019, pp. 12-28 LANGUAGE-IN-EDUCATION POLICIES AND INDIGENOUS LANGUAGE REVITALIZATION EFFORTS IN CANADA: CONSIDERATIONS FOR NON-DOMINANT LANGUAGE EDUCATION IN THE GLOBAL SOUTH Onowa McIvor1 University of Victoria, Canada Jessica Ball University of Victoria, Canada Abstract Indigenous languages are struggling for breath in the Global North. In Canada, Indigenous language medium schools and early childhood programs remain independent and marginalized. Despite government commitments, there is little support for Indigenous language-in-education policy and initiatives. This article describes an inaugural, country- wide, federally-funded, Indigenous-led language revitalization research project, entitled NE OL EW̱ (one mind-one people). The project brings together nine Indigenous partners to build a country-wide network and momentum to pressure multi-levels of government to honourȾ agreementsṈ enshrining the right of children to learn their Indigenous language. The project is documenting approaches to create new Indigenous language speakers, focusing on adult language learners able to keep the language vibrant and teach their language to children. The article reflects upon how this Northern emphasis on Indigenous language revitalization and country-wide networking initiative is relevant to mother tongue-based education and policy examples in the Global South. The article underscores the need for both community level initiatives (top-down) and government level policy and funding (bottom up) to support child and adult Indigenous language learning. Keywords: Indigenous language practices, language-in-education policies, policy reform, First Nations, Indigenous, Canada, Global North, Global South 1 Correspondence: Dr. Onowa McIvor, C/O Dept. of Indigenous Education, University of Victoria, PO Box 1700 STN CSC, Victoria BC V8W 2Y2; Email: [email protected] O.

  • Hate Speech, Pseudonyms, the Internet, Impersonator Trolls, and Fake Jews in the Era of Fake News
    The Ohio State Technology Law Journal WEB OF LIES: HATE SPEECH, PSEUDONYMS, THE INTERNET, IMPERSONATOR TROLLS, AND FAKE JEWS IN THE ERA OF FAKE NEWS YITZCHAK BESSER1 This Article discusses the problem of “hate-speech impersonator trolls,” that is, those who impersonate minorities through the use of false identities online, and then use those false identities to harm those minorities through disinformation campaigns and false-flag operations. Solving this problem requires a change to the status quo, either through the passage of a new statute targeting hate-speech impersonator trolls or through the modification of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. In this Article, I discuss the scope and severity of hate- speech impersonator-trolling, as well as relevant jurisprudence on the First Amendment, hate speech, anonymity, and online communications. I then present proposals and recommendations to counter and combat hate-speech impersonator trolls. CONTENTS I. INTRODUCTION .............................................................. 234 II.

  • Black-Jewish Coalition” Unraveled: Where Does Israel Fit?
    The “Black-Jewish Coalition” Unraveled: Where Does Israel Fit? A Master’s Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Hornstein Jewish Professional Leadership Program Professors Ellen Smith and Jonathan Krasner Ph.D., Advisors In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts by Leah Robbins May 2020 Copyright by Leah Robbins 2020 Acknowledgements This thesis was made possible by the generous and thoughtful guidance of my two advisors, Professors Ellen Smith and Jonathan Krasner. Their content expertise, ongoing encouragement, and loving pushback were invaluable to the work. This research topic is complex for the Jewish community and often wrought with pain. My advisors never once questioned my intentions, my integrity as a researcher, or my clear and undeniable commitment to the Jewish people of the past, present, and future. I do not take for granted this gift of trust, which bolstered the work I’m so proud to share. I am also grateful to the entire Hornstein community for making room for me to show up in my fullness, and for saying “yes” to authentically wrestle with my ideas along the way. It’s been a great privilege to stretch and grow alongside you, and I look forward to continuing to shape one another in the years to come. iii ABSTRACT The “Black-Jewish Coalition” Unraveled: Where Does Israel Fit? A thesis presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Brandeis University Waltham, Massachusetts By Leah Robbins Fascination with the famed “Black-Jewish coalition” in the United States, whether real or imaginary, is hardly a new phenomenon of academic interest.

  • Nonprofit Security Grant Program I. Recent Events of National
    Nonprofit Security Grant Program Threat Compendium: January 2019 to Present November 15, 2019 Prepared By: Rob Goldberg, Senior Director, Legislative Affairs [email protected] I. Recent Events of National Significance Imminent Attack on Colorado Synagogue Prevented: Between November 1 and 2, 2019, Richard Holzer, 27, of Pueblo, Colorado, was arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and allegedly admitted planning to blow up Temple Emanuel, a synagogue in Pueblo, Colorado. According to the criminal affidavit: Holzer used several Facebook accounts “to promote white supremacy ideology and acts of violence.” For example: o On July 11, he sent a message to another Facebook user stating, “getting ready to cap people.” He included three photos of himself dressed in clothing with white supremacy symbols, holding handguns and a semiautomatic rifle. o On Sept. 3, he told a Facebook user, “I wish the holocaust really did happen… they need to die.” o On Sept. 28, Holzer sent a video of himself urinating on the front door of what appears to be a Jewish center. o On Oct. 3, Holzer sent a message stating, “I’m getting ready for RAHOWA,” meaning a racial holy war. He also sent a voice mail stating he was going to Temple Emanuel “to scope it out.” o On Oct. 13, Holzer explained his plan to use arsenic to poison the synagogue in Pueblo on Oct. 31. On Oct. 17, Holzer met with three FBI undercover agents (UCs). o After the meeting, Holzer, an associate, and the undercover agents drove to Pueblo to visit Temple Emanuel. Holzer allegedly stated that Molotov cocktails would not “be enough” and the group discussed using pipe bombs.
