SUMMARY:'Progressive Jewish Culture in Argentina and South America: An Ethno-Political Identity (1937-1991)'
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this lecture by Saba Nerina Visacovsky\, part of the Fordham-NYPL Lecture Series. \nThe progressive Jewish movement in Argentina and South America was formed in the heat of the slogans and transnational initiatives of the popular front and its call for unity to fight fascism and anti-Semitism\, and in defense of the Yiddish culture. The creation of the Yidisher Kultur Farband Federation (YKUF) during the Congress of Jewish Culture held in Paris in 1937\, and its replica in Buenos Aires in 1941 (ICUF)\, embodied this atmosphere. The YKUF/ICUF brought together the existing pro-Soviet secular Jewish institutions and collaborated to create new ones. The new federation provided them with a political-ideological framework for their representation in the Jewish street and in their relationship with the Communist Party. This lecture aims to present the progressive Jewish identity in Argentina and refer briefly to the impact of the YKUF in South American countries. \nThis is a hybrid event; please register for forthcoming details about the location. \nAbout the Speaker\nNerina Visacovsky holds a Ph.D. from the Philosophy and Literature Faculty of the University of Buenos Aires\, Argentina. She is a researcher at the National Council for Scientific and Technical Research (Conicet)\, a professor of politics and government at the School of the National University of San Martín\, and director of the Pinie Katz Documentation Center and Library (Cedob) from the ICUF. She has written several articles for national and international journals. Among her books are Argentinos judíos y camaradas: tras la utopía socialista (2015) and La tribuna icufista: tiempo de aportes (2021).

SUMMARY:Alice in Chinatown: Chol Soo Lee’s Fight for Freedom — APALSA Reenactment
DESCRIPTION:On the evening of June 3\, 1973\, a man was shot and killed on a crowded street in San Francisco’s Chinatown in a suspected gang murder.

SUMMARY:Professional Boundaries: Ethical Obligations of Social Workers
DESCRIPTION:Can mental health professionals work with clients that they know from outside of the job? Can you barter with clients for your services? Mental health professionals are charged with the legal and ethical responsibility to maintain professional boundaries\, but the obligation isn’t always so easy to discern. This class brings real-world context to ethical concerns often experienced by professionals in practice in maintaining appropriate professional boundaries. This class will provide a framework to contemplate ethical dilemmas and make informed decisions that insulate professionals from legal liability while protecting clients from harm. \nRegister for May 4 \nRegister for June 1 \nCompletion of this class will result in the receipt of three continuing education hours. \n\nThis class is designed to meet the New York state requirement that mental health professionals receive three hours of training on maintaining appropriate professional boundaries (effective April 2023). This class is not specific to New York state and can satisfy ethics and boundaries training requirements for any state.

SUMMARY:Holy Cow: Religion\, Race\, and Milk in Lancaster County\, Pennsylvania
DESCRIPTION:In the past 15 years\, Lancaster County has increasingly become a thriving hub for Orthodox Jewish tourists seeking “kosher” leisure activities\, including encounters with the Amish tourist industry. The expanding Orthodox Jewish tourist infrastructure has developed in tandem with an unexpected economic collaboration between some ultra-Orthodox Jews and local Amish and Mennonite farmers to produce unpasteurized kosher dairy products. Based on anthropological research with Orthodox Jewish tourists\, dairy entrepreneurs\, and local Amish/Mennonite farmers\, Feldman and Fader show that kosher collaborations around milk\, in particular\, offer a lens to think through contemporary American racialized politics and minority religious identities in our\npost-COVID-19 and post-Trump realities. \nAbout the Speakers\nRachel Feldman is a cultural anthropologist and currently an assistant professor of religious studies/Judaic studies at Franklin and Marshall College in Pennsylvania. Starting on July 1\, she will be moving to Dartmouth College and will be joining the Department of Religion. Feldman is the author of Messianic Zionism in the Digital Age: Jews\, Noahides\, and the Third Temple Imaginary\, a book that is forthcoming from Rutgers University Press and was recently awarded the Jordan Schnitzer first book prize by the AJS. She is also the co-editor of Settler-Indigeneity in the West Bank\, a volume that will be available in July from McGill-Queen’s University Press. \nAyala Fader is a professor of anthropology at Fordham University. She is the author of the award-winning books Mitzvah Girls: Bringing Up the Next Generation of Hasidic Jews in Brooklyn (2009) and Hidden Heretics: Jewish Doubt in the Digital Age (2020). Fader’s research\, supported by prestigious fellowships from the NSF and the NEH\, appears in academic journals and more public venues. Fader is the co-founder of the Seminar on Jewish Orthodoxies at Fordham\, is on the steering committee of the Haredi Research Group\, and is a fellow at the American Academy for Jewish Research. As the director of Fordham’s New York Center for Public Anthropology\, Fader is currently collaborating on the Demystifying Language Project\, which works to make linguistic anthropology a social justice resource for public high schools. \nCo-sponsored by the Seminar on Jewish Orthodoxies and the Haredi Research Group.

SUMMARY:Moral Distress: What It Is and How to Respond
DESCRIPTION:The concept of moral distress refers to a clinical situation in which the patient is perceived to be “suffering” and the clinician knows what they feel to be the best course of action\, but that course conflicts with what is best for the organization\, other providers\, other patients\, the family\, or society as a whole. Moral distress can occur when the professional feels a sense of heightened moral responsibility and a perception of powerlessness. \nWhile moral distress was first recognized among nurses\, we now know that moral distress affects physicians\, pharmacists\, social workers\, chaplains\, psychologists\, and other healthcare providers. This class covers the experience of moral distress\, its impact on clinicians of multiple disciplines\, and the specific impact of moral distress among palliative care teams. Special attention will be given to the impact of the pandemic on moral distress. Strategies for recognizing and dealing with the experience of moral distress in individuals\, teams\, and within health systems will be considered. \nThree continuing education hours will be offered upon completion of the course.

SUMMARY:Financial Issues Forum: Pulak Prasad on What I Learned About Investing from Darwin
DESCRIPTION:The investment profession is in a state of crisis. The vast majority of equity fund managers are unable to beat the market over the long term\, which has led to massive outflows from active funds to passive funds. Where should investors turn in search of a new approach? \nPulak Prasad offers a philosophy of patient\, long-term investing based on an unexpected source: evolutionary biology. He draws key lessons from core Darwinian concepts\, mixing vivid examples from the natural world with compelling stories of good and bad investing decisions—including his own. How can Bumblebees’ survival strategies help us accept that we might miss out on Tesla? What does an experiment in breeding tame foxes reveal about the traits of successful businesses? Why might a small frog’s mimicry of the croak of a larger rival shed light on the signs of corporate dishonesty? \nInformed by successful evolutionary strategies\, Prasad outlines his counterintuitive principles for long-term gain. He provides three mantras for investing: Avoid big risks\, buy high quality at a fair price\, and don’t be lazy—be very lazy. Prasad makes a persuasive case for a strategy that rules out the vast majority of investment opportunities and advocates permanently owning high-quality businesses. \nCombining punchy prose and practical insight\, What I Learned About Investing from Darwin reveals why evolutionary biology can help fund managers become better at their craft. \nAbout the Speaker\nPulak Prasad is the author of What I Learned About Investing from Darwin (Columbia Business School Publishing\, May 2023). He is the founder of Nalanda Capital\, a Singapore-based firm that invests in listed Indian equities and manages about $5 billion. He was previously the co-head of India for Warburg Pincus\, a global private equity firm\, and worked at the management consulting firm McKinsey for several years.

SUMMARY:Strengthening Healthcare Social Work Documentation to Mitigate Bias
DESCRIPTION:Healthcare social workers engage in discipline-specific\, skilled interventions informed by training\, best practices\, and attunement to social justice. Documenting assessments and interventions clearly communicates the value of the social work perspective\, skills\, and contributions and influences outcomes while also contributing to the learning of those who read our work. This class will review the literature on bias in documentation in the medical record\, a focus driven by the advent of “open notes” as of April 2021. Sample patient notes and narratives will be used to illustrate how social work documentation communicates best practices and has the potential to mitigate bias while integrating the impacts of social determinants. \nNo matter the setting\, word choice is foundational to communication and documentation and significantly impacts patient family experiences\, decisional outcomes\, bereavement\, and legacy. We will explore attributed meanings underlying words and phrases used in health care and unintended consequences. Our spoken words are often reflected in the written words and phrases used in documentation in a medical record\, which is a permanent record influencing care. This class will expand on language and word choice and highlight the ethical responsibility in documenting authentically and with the awareness that documentation is permanent\, creates opportunities to mitigate bias\, and can maximize the impact of the social work lens of “person in environment.” \nCompletion of this class will result in the receipt of two continuing education hours.

SUMMARY:Pope Francis and Social Justice: Cardinal Michael Czerny\, S.J.\, Discusses His New Book
DESCRIPTION:Cardinal Michael Czerny\, SJ\, head of the Vatican’s Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development\, is the Curia’s chief promoter of the social justice ministry of Pope Francis\, a fellow Jesuit. \nCardinal Czerny will be discussing his latest book\, Siblings All\, Sign of the Times: The Social Teaching of Pope Francis. Written with Italian theologian Father Michael Barone\, this work traces the path of social justice that Pope Francis has laid out—a body of teaching that is both radical in responding to the dynamics of our era\, but also grounded in Catholic tradition and the Second Vatican Council. \nIn this discussion at the offices of America Media\, Cardinal Czerny will be joined by Christine Firer Hinze\, chair of Fordham University’s Department of Theology and author of Radical Sufficiency: Work\, Livelihood\, and a U.S. Catholic Economic Ethic\, and Anthony Annett\, visiting scholar at the Center for Sustainable Development at Columbia University and author of Cathonomics: How Catholic Tradition Can Create a More Just Economy. \nThe event will begin with a wine and cheese reception at 5:30 p.m.\, and the book discussion will begin at 6:15 p.m. Books will be available for sale. \nSpace is limited\, and a reservation is required. \nThis event is jointly organized with America Media.
