SUMMARY:9/12 LUNCH & LEARN | Antisemitism and the Politics of "Tolerance"
DESCRIPTION:Russell Shorto has called Amsterdam “the world’s most liberal city\,” and indeed\, the Netherlands is well known for its tolerant approaches to drug enforcement\, legalized sex work\, and gay rights. However\, recent events have brought this self-congratulatory attitude into question\, especially in debates over immigration and multiculturalism. \nIs tolerance as positive of an ideal as it seems on the surface? Or might a focus on tolerance reinforce the very conflicts it is intended to manage? This conversation will explore the legacies of the Holocaust for how antisemitism is approached in the Netherlands today and its complex relation to anti-Muslim racism. \nLUNCH & LEARN\n\nAbout the speaker\n\n\n Nicolaas P. Barr\, Ph.D.\, teaches in Comparative History of Ideas and Jewish Studies at the University of Washington\, Seattle. He leads a UW study abroad program to Amsterdam and is the Dutch-to-English translator of Tofik Dibi’s coming-out memoir Djinn. Nicolaas has appeared on The Stranger’s podcast “Blabbermouth” to discuss such terms as anarchy\, progressive\, and neoliberal\, and written on Dutch racism in The Nation and Jewish Currents. He’s an editor for H-Low Countries and a trombonist in the Mexican band Banda Vagos.

SUMMARY:9/ 22 DAWG DAZE | Shared Spaces: The Making and Remaking of Black and Jewish Seattle
DESCRIPTION:The Stroum Center for Jewish Studies is proud to be collaborating with Black Heritage Society President Stephanie Johnson-Toliver and local Jewish historian Howard Droker to offer a walking tour of the Central District‘s historic Black and Jewish neighborhoods. On Friday\, 9/22 at noon\, this Dawg Daze event will take a group off campus to an area where immigrants and ethnic minorities lived\, shaping the vibrant character of the district over the past century. While strolling through the neighborhood for approximately 2 miles\, students will view some of the cultural hub’s most important houses of worship (like synagogues turned to churches and mosques) and shared gathering spaces. Come join us to discover Seattle through the eyes of two of its oldest ethnic communities. \nRSVP\n\nCo-sponsored by American Ethnic Studies. \n \nWe will meet outside of Thomson Hall at noon in front of the bust of David Thomson\, where we will board a bus that will arrive in Seattle’s Central District around 12:30 pm. \nAfterwards\, we’ll finish the tour at Cafe Selam. \n  \n  \nTo learn more\, check out some of our related journal articles and exhibits: \n\nUncovering the history of Seattle’s first settlers from the Ottoman Empire\nSeattle Sephardic Legacies\nBetween Rhodes and Seattle: Three generations of Sephardic women in family letters\n“Hidden manuscripts\, come out!”: Seattle Sephardic Legacies highlights Ladino literature
