  • IMPUGNING IMPUNITY: ALBA's Human Rights Documentary Film Festival
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact Information: Abraham Lincoln Brigade Archives (ALBA) Marina Garde, Executive Director Tel. (212) 674-5398 ● [email protected] For complete program: alba-valb.org/programs Impugning Impunity: ALBA’s Human Rights Documentary Film Festival Showcases Stories Beneath the Surface New York (August 26, 2014) – Over the course of three days, a selection of cutting-edge human rights documentaries will challenge, educate, and inspire audiences at IMPUGNING IMPUNITY: ALBA's Human Rights Documentary Film Festival. Now in its fourth year, and featuring films produced since 2013, this annual film festival brings human rights struggles to life through storytelling. The festival will run from September 29 to October 1, 2014 at the Instituto Cervantes NY. With almost 100 films in competition, the Official Selection features thirteen independent documentaries from nine different countries, including seven New York premieres and five world premieres. This year’s program focuses on consumption and capitalism, in addition to historical memory and governmental abuse of power. The festival will launch on September 29 with Vencidx (Defeated,) a world premiere documentary featuring first-person testimonies about the Spanish Civil War, unveiling individual efforts to recover a country’s historical memory. The closing night lineup, on October 1, will include three inspirational films from the Middle East, Morocco and the U.S. The last film, 1971, will remind us that before Watergate, WikiLeaks and Edward Snowden, there was Media, Pennsylvania. A story that will inspire audiences — young and old — and encourage them to think hard about the relevance of nonviolent, civil disobedience while reminding people what it means to be an engaged citizen.

  • Significance to Jewish Culture
    HER RED FATHER Significance to Jewish Culture Her Red Father follows the political career of a Southern Jewish lawyer, radicalized by the Great Depression of the nineteen thirties. Under the auspices of the Communist Party’s International Labor Defense Bernard Ades engages the systemic legal racism in Maryland, has some success and is also made a pariah for his efforts. He then confronts fascism, fighting in Spain. He returns to the US to blacklisting and years of relentless and fruitless FBI surveillance. In all three phases Bernard Ades can be seen as one of many in his generation: secular and in thrall to the ideals of socialism, involved in the issues of nationalism but not necessarily for his own people, and passionately committed to seeking justice. Moreover. the issues of those times, imaginary and real threats from abroad, endless and unfocused surveillance, as well as demonization of unpopular political groups and national or religious minorities, and a lack of substantive, effective responses, these are issues now too. Several of these historical events mattered to Jews and Jewish history, directly and obliquely. Reactions to the problems of capitalism were often nationalistic and thusly exclusive and also socialistic. Within the Zionist movement this was expressed in the hope for a homeland and the foundation of the Kibbutzim. In Europe both the Communists and the fascists advocated socialism and the social democrats were committed to it as in Scandinavia. But in the meantime in the 1930s the totalitarian, nationalistic and anti-Semitic currents forced many, and disproportionately Jews, into exile. An early military confrontation occurs in Spain where many of the exiles including many Jews fight to stop the fascist takeover of that nascent democracy.

  • 1 Insiders and Outsiders: Jewish-Gentile Relations In
    Insiders and Outsiders: Jewish-Gentile Relations in Baltimore During the Interwar Era Deb Weiner On April 21, 1936, seven months after Germany’s Nuremberg Laws stripped Jews of their citizenship, the Nazi warship Emden docked in Baltimore on a good will tour. Thousands of curious Baltimoreans flocked to Recreation Pier to tour the ship during its ten-day visit. The “genial” Captain Hans Bachmann exchanged courtesy calls with Mayor Jackson. At an officers’ reception sponsored by the city’s German societies, guests (including city and state officials) drank a toast to Hitler as “beer flowed freely.” Nazi sailors fought a local German soccer club to a 4-4 tie at Gwynn Oak Park and some 450 Marylanders enjoyed a shipboard luncheon that showed off “sea life’s gay side.” When the Emden steamed away, 2,000 onlookers bade it farewell as its swastika flag fluttered and its band serenaded them with “Deutschland Uber Alles” and “Anchors Aweigh.”1 The Evening Sun praised the city for “living up to its reputation as a hospitable and tolerant place,” while acknowledging that the Jewish community “behaved during what was to them a trying period, with signal dignity and restraint.” The reaction of the organized Jewish community was indeed muted. The Jewish Times editorialized before the ship arrived that it would be “unthinkable” that “Baltimore should officially offer a friendly gesture of welcome,” but showed no trace of a communal response to the city’s hospitality toward the Nazis.2 To Jewish Baltimoreans, the Emden’s visit was clearly a setback in their efforts to become part of mainstream society.
