Family History Today: A Moroccan Jewish Genealogical Journey - Live on Zoom
Upon discovering from a family member that her great-grandfather was born in Manchester, speaker Raquel Levy-Toledano undertook an immediate quest to uncover his origins. Did he belong to an Ashkenazi family that migrated to England from Prussia at the start of the 19th century? This hypothesis could elucidate certain Ashkenazi customs observed within her family. Alternatively, could he have been born in England by chance? This second possibility is plausible given that her family hails from Mogador (now Essaouira), a city with strong trade connections to England throughout the 19th century.
This marked the start of a long and arduous but enlightening journey for Raquel. Through both traditional document-based genealogy and genetic testing, she uncovers a new branch of her family, the Levy Belfsahi. Her research journey took her from Mogador in Morocco, to Manchester in England, Faro in Portugal, Ponta Delgada in the Azores, and finally to San Anton and Praia in Cape Verde. Along the way, she embarked many distant relatives now residing in various countries including Morocco, France, Israel, Canada, the United States, Switzerland, Portugal, England, and Cape Verde.
Raquel’s genealogical journey highlights the urgent need for more systematically organized research on Moroccan Jewish genealogy. While some rabbinic lineages are well-documented, information on other families remains either inaccessible or entirely absent. In numerous cases, oral tradition is still the primary -- sometimes only -- source of knowledge. To address this gap, she created the Jewish Moroccan Genealogy group on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/groups/genealogiedesjuifsdumaroc) aimed at reconnecting families and reconstructing a unified Moroccan Jewish family tree. Today, this tree includes over 400,000 interconnected profiles of Moroccan and Algerian Jews.

Crisis, War, and the Holocaust in Lithuania - Live on Zoom
Crisis, War, and the Holocaust in Lithuania is the first scholarly English-language study of Lithuania during World War II. The book utilizes previously inaccessible archives as well as academic works published in that country in the post-Soviet era. In the first chapters, the book examines the multifaceted relations of Lithuania’s national communities before World War II and the international and domestic crises which led to the destruction of the Lithuanian state in 1940. Author Saulius Suziedelis describes the process of the mass persecution and murder of the country’s Jews during the Holocaust, the role of Nazi and collaborationist forces, and acts of resistance, as well as the society’s responses. The book concludes with an examination of the postwar struggle within Lithuania to confront this legacy of unprecedented violence.
Join YIVO for a discussion with Suziedelis about this new book, led by Jonathan Brent.

Voices of Jewish Literary Giants: Hayim Nahman Bialik and Philip Roth - In-person Program and Live on Zoom
Philip Roth and Hayim Nahman Bialik are some of the most celebrated writers in contemporary Jewish literature. In his newly published biography of Roth (1933–2018), Philip Roth: Stung by Life, Steven J. Zipperstein explores the complex life and astonishing work of one of America’s most celebrated novelists. Born in Newark, New Jersey, Roth wrote with relentless ambition, producing a wide-ranging body of work—from Goodbye, Columbus to American Pastoral—that grappled with sex, identity, and American Jewishness. Simultaneously charismatic and reclusive, Roth lived, in his own words, like an “unchaste monk,” obsessively committed to the craft of writing.
In On the Slaughter, translated and introduced by MacArthur-winning poet Peter Cole, the poetry of Hayim Nahman Bialik (1873–1934) emerges with renewed force. Born in a Ukrainian village and hailed by Maxim Gorky as “a modern Isaiah,” Bialik transformed Hebrew literature, bridging traditional Jewish thought with modern humanism. This compact collection reveals a poet far more politically and psychologically unsettling than his image as a national icon suggests—ranging from furious responses to pogroms to luminous introspection and children’s verse.
Join YIVO for a conversation with Zipperstein and Cole about the enduring legacies of Roth and Bialik.

Lunchtime Lecture: Marsha Rozenblit on Austria in German-Jewish History - Live on Zoom
On November 12 at 12:00 PM EDT, Marsha Rozenblit will discuss Austria in German-Jewish historiography over the past decades.
As we look back at the last 70 years of German-Jewish historiography since the founding of the Leo Baeck Institute, LBI presents a series of seven events focusing on the most important topics in German Jewish history. Each generation of historians witnesses the appearance of different approaches to historical writing. After decades of focusing on the main political events in German-Jewish history and biographies of political leaders, there has been a turn to microhistory, the role of common people, women and children, minorities, stories dominated by struggles and failures, etc. In the new series, the LBI will present a comprehensive view of seven overarching topics in German Jewish history and ask how their historiography has changed over the decades.
About the Speaker
Marsha L. Rozenblit is the Harvey M.Meyerhoff Professor of Modern Jewish History at the University of Maryland, where she has been on the faculty since 1978. A social historian of the Jews of the Habsburg Monarchy and its successor states, she is the author of two scholarly books: The Jews of Vienna, 1867-1914: Assimilation and Identity (State University of New York Press, 1983); and Reconstructing a National Identity: The Jews of Habsburg Austria during World War I (Oxford University Press, 2001).

Postcards From the Past: Bringing Deltiology to Jewish Genealogy – In-Person and Live on Zoom
Postcards can be an overlooked and occasionally invaluable means of peering further into the lives of our ancestors. Not only can they illuminate microhistory (in ways that may otherwise be lost to the ages), but both the front and the back of postcards can contribute mightily to any genealogical study. Images on the front of a card can offer illustrations of long-demolished places of interest, while messages on the back may shed light on an ancestor’s travels and happenings, giving the researcher a clearer sense of the writer’s concerns of a long-forgotten moment. These are only a few of the many ways in which genealogy and deltiology (the study and collection of postcards) can intersect. This talk will include unique imagery and case studies to demonstrate the special role postcards can play in Jewish genealogy.
About the Speaker
Michael Cassara is a professional genealogist and lecturer based in New York City, specializing in Italian/Sicilian genealogy, New York and New Jersey research, and genealogical technology. He has frequently presented at regional societies as well as national conferences, including six years of presentations at RootsTech, the 2018 Association of Professional Genealogists Professional Management Conference, a popular 2019 APG Webinar on genealogical technology, as well as talks at FGS, OGS, the New York State Family History Conference, Allen County Public Library, and more.

The Dave Tarras Legacy – In-person Program and Live on Zoom
Dave Tarras (1897-1989) was the individual most responsible for the development of a uniquely American style of Jewish klezmer music. Born into a large klezmer family in Podolia, central Ukraine, Tarras immigrated to New York in 1921. Here his talent was immediately recognized, and he was quickly conscripted into the local music scene. The year 2025 represents the centennial of Tarras’ initial recordings from 1925. His sparkling five-decade recording career documents his innovations — a new corpus of repertoire as well as a refined style that reflected musically the aesthetics of an upwardly-mobile and assimilating mid-century American Jewish community.
In the mid-1970s, Tarras mentored the young musicians Andy Statman and Walter Zev Feldman, and the three worked together to present a series of tours and an important recording sponsored by the Balkan Arts Center (now the Center for Traditional Music and Dance). The program sparked a revitalization of klezmer on the East Coast, which has blossomed into an international revival of Yiddish culture. Statman would follow in his mentor’s footsteps and become recognized as the first clarinet virtuoso produced by the klezmer revival.
Please join us for this special concert celebrating Tarras’ 100-year recording legacy and its impact on American klezmer featuring three of the contemporary Yiddish music scene’s leading performers — NEA National Heritage Fellow Andy Statman (clarinet), Dan Blacksberg (trombone) and Pete Rushefsky (tsimbl/cimbalom).

Jewish Religious Life in Lithuania in the 18th-20th Centuries - Live on Zoom
Jewish Religious Life in Lithuania in the 18th-20th Centuries is a newly published volume that addresses the complicated issue of distinctive characteristics of Jewish religious life in Lithuania. Its authors and editors deal with the range of religious expressions, with the religious life of different sectors of the Jewish community of Lithuania, and with the dynamics of change in religious life in Lithuania over time. In this volume, Lithuania is more a historical and social concept than a geographical territory with clearly delineated borders and political identity. The authors deliberate how “Lithuanian” are the religious phenomena they discuss and what the historical agents understood as Lithuania in their given period, area, and historical circumstances.
Join YIVO for a panel discussion about this book led by Andrew Silow-Carroll, featuring editors Shaul Stampfer and Lara Lempertiene and contributors Tzipora Weinberg and Daniel Reiser.

Vladka Meed's 'On Both Sides of the Wall' - Live on Zoom
Vladka Meed, born Feigele Peltel, was just a teenager when the Germans invaded Poland in 1939. Increasingly devastated by the deportation and murder of 300,000 Jews—including her mother, brother, and sister—who were sent from Warsaw to the death camp of Treblinka, she heeded the call for armed resistance, joining the Jewish Fighting Organization (ZOB), established in Warsaw in July 1942. With her typically “Aryan” looks and fluency in Polish, Vladka could pose as a Gentile, so the ZOB asked her to live on the Aryan side of the wall and serve as a courier. In this role, she smuggled weapons across the wall, helped Jewish children escape from the ghetto, assisted Jews hiding in the city, and established contact with both Jews in the labor camps and with the partisans in the forest.
In this newly revised translation of the original Yiddish memoir, which was published in 1948, Vladka’s son, Steven D. Meed, preserves the testimony and memory of his mother for a new generation of readers. Join YIVO for a discussion with Steven D. Meed about this translation, led by Samuel Kassow.

'Yiddish Voices': A Translation Series by YIVO and Bloomsbury - In-person Program and Live on Zoom
Join us for the launch of the latest two volumes in the Yiddish Voices series, a partnership between YIVO and Bloomsbury. The first, The Destruction of Dubova: Chronicle of a Dead City, is a searing account of pogrom violence by the writer and documentarian Rokhl Faygenberg, and the second, The Mother of Yiddish Theatre: Memoirs of Ester-Rokhl Kaminska, is the memoir of the Yiddish actress and diva Ester-Rokhl Kaminska. Extraordinarily, both of these works were published exactly a century ago, in Warsaw in 1926. Both Kaminska and Faygenberg were exceptional as women cultural pioneers, and both were witness to the vitality and fragility of Ukrainian Jewish life and interwar Polish culture. The event will explore these works through image, conversation, and readings, with Elissa Bemporad (editor, The Destruction of Dubova), Mikhl Yashinsky (translator and editor, The Mother of Yiddish Theatre), historian Glenn Dynner (University of Virginia), and a live performance. Book signing and cocktails will follow.

Sugihara’s List - Live on Zoom
In the summer of 1940, Chiune Sugihara (1900–1986), a Japanese diplomat and spy, serving as consul of the Empire of Japan in Kaunas, issued several thousand Jews, mainly refugees from Poland, transit visas enabling them to travel through Japan on their way to the Dutch island of Curaçao in the Caribbean. It was all fiction; in reality, no one was going to Curaçao, and most of the Jews who were saved eventually found refuge in Japan, the Shanghai ghetto, Australia, or New Zealand. In Sugihara’s List, author Zofia Hartman analyzes the legacy of Sugihara and the thousands of Jews he saved during the Holocaust.

A Very Jewish Christmas: Jesus in Modern Jewish Literature - In-person Program and Live on Zoom
“Other, and indeed banned, and yet one of my brothers” was how the renowned Yiddish and Hebrew modernist, Uri Zvi Greenberg, expressed his ambivalence toward Jesus in one of his many poems about this towering figure. Greenberg’s contemporaries shared this sentiment. For them, Jesus was inextricably bound up with the history of violence towards Jews committed in his name. At the same time, he also embodied an “authentic national Jew,” whose suffering and resistance to the authorities of his time created a powerful image that played a significant role in rethinking Jewish identity.
In this talk, Neta Stahl will examine how Jewish writers portrayed Jesus during periods of significant transformations in Jewish life. She will demonstrate that Jesus serves a range of ideological, theological, aesthetic, political, social, and psychological functions that not only relate to the long history of Jewish-Christian relations in Europe but also reflect attempts to reframe Jewish national lives in the diaspora and Israel.
A kosher Chinese food dinner will follow the presentation.
