SUMMARY:“Aleppian Wedding”—Songs from Shared Traditions: A Concert with the Aleppo Ensemble and Mohamed Alsiadi
DESCRIPTION:Fordham’s Center for Jewish Studies and the Arabic Studies Program present “Aleppian Wedding” Songs from Shared Traditions by the Aleppo Ensemble. \nThe Aleppo Ensemble is a New York-based group devoted to performing and preserving the rich heritage of wasla music\, song\, poetry\, and dance from Aleppo. The group’s mission has been made all the more urgent in recent years with the physical and cultural destruction of Aleppo\, long the cultural capital of Syria where Muslim\, Christian\, and Jewish traditions came together. \nThrough their work\, they strive to reach Syrian refugees as well as Syrian Americans whose history in the U.S. goes back over a hundred years\, two groups that share the fear that they are witnessing the destruction of their homeland. The Aleppo Ensemble’s music and story is a timely reminder that cultural traditions are often deeply held across time and place\, often in spite of historic humanitarian crises. \nThe wasla is a musical suite that is the focal point for evening gatherings devoted to traditional Arab classical music. Dating back hundreds of years\, the Aleppian wasla is heard at both Sufi religious events and secular performances. Based on various Syrian and Arabic maqams (modes)\, the wasla includes both improvised and composed instrumental and vocal pieces. \nThe Aleppo Ensemble was founded by Mohamed Alsiadi\, Ph.D.\, an oud virtuoso\, who grew up in a music-loving Sufi household in Syria. Living through the civil war that ravaged the country from 1979 to 1982 made him realize the need to preserve the legacy of Aleppian waslas. \nAfter that war concluded his mother found a box of wasla cassettes that he came to treasure. Alsiadi spent eight years studying with oud master Nadim Al Darwish\, the son of Ali Al Darwish\, an early 20th century musician and scholar who has been called one of Aleppo’s most famous musical sons. Alsiadi began collecting and transcribing waslas from Syrian musicians and radio stations while also launching an accomplished career as a performer and academic. \nIn 1996 Alsiadi moved to the United States\, where he is now a senior lecturer in Arabic at Fordham. He co-founded the Aleppo Ensemble with percussionist A. P. Joseph\, whose grandparents immigrated from Syria to the United States. \nAs the city and culture of Aleppo are once again suffering from the devastating effects of the Syrian war\, Alsiadi has brought its music to venues as prestigious as Carnegie Hall\, where he has performed with his collaborator\, the pianist and composer Malek Jandali. But also part of his mission is posting videos of waslas on YouTube where Syrian refugees around the world can see them. ‘ \n‘Wasla is one of the few things they cannot destroy” says Alsiadi\, ”because you cannot shoot music. You cannot kill music. Words sway thoughts\, music moves hearts\, and together they can spur action and affect the course of history.”

SUMMARY:Screening of Yellow Face
DESCRIPTION:Tony-winning playwright David Henry Hwang’s comedy from Roundabout Theatre Company stars Daniel Dae Kim (Lost\, Hawaii Five-0) as an Asian American playwright who protests yellowface casting in the blockbuster musical Miss Saigon\, only to mistakenly cast a white actor as the Asian lead in his own play. The repercussions resonate in this farce about the complexities of race. \nFilmed in November 2024 and directed by Leigh Silverman (Violet\, Suffs)\, Yellow Face is an “is-he-or-isn’t-he” comedy of identity\, show business and autobiography. \nFollowing the screening\, there will be a panel discussion featuring Francis Jue\, winner of the 2025 Tony Award\, and director Leigh Silverman. \nWe invite you to join us for this special screening and thought-provoking conversation. \nThe recording of this performance is provided courtesy of The WNET Group.

SUMMARY:“Blue Like Me”: An Evening with Siona Benjamin
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the exhibit “Yearning to Breathe: The Art of Siona Benjamin” at Fordham Univerisity’s Walsh Family and Quinn Libraries\, we invite you to join us for a screening of the documentary Blue Like Me\, profiling the Indian-American artist Siona Benjamin. Raised in the small Bene Israel Jewish community in Mumbai\, India\, Benjamin’s art fuses world religions with eastern myths and western pop culture to create vibrant new worlds. Blue Like Me travels with Siona to Mumbai\, revisiting the Bene Israel Jews portrayed in her recent Fulbright project. Benjamin is a daughter of Israel\, born of India\, and a citizen of the world—and that world is blue. \nBenjamin is originally from Bombay\, and now lives and works in Montclair\, New Jersey. Her work reflects her background of being brought up Jewish in a predominantly Hindu and Muslim India. In her paintings\, she combines the imagery of her past with the role she plays in America today\, making a mosaic inspired by both Indian miniature paintings and Jewish and Christian illuminated manuscripts.

SUMMARY:How Did We Get Here? A Deep Dive into the History of Israel and Palestine\, Part IV: October 7 and the Aftermath
DESCRIPTION:The Hamas-engineered massacre of October 7\, 2023\, stunned and shocked Israel and the Jewish world to the core. It triggered a massive Israeli response that has reduced large parts of northern Gaza to rubble. Supporters of Israel and the Palestinians are more bitterly divided than ever\, around the world and especially on college campuses. What are the roots of today’s conflict? And what does it portend for the future of the region? \nTo gain insight into this latest stage in a brutal and divisive conflict that has ebbed and flowed for more than a century\, Fordham University’s Center for Jewish Studies is sponsoring a four-part series on the history of the conflict with Hussein Ibish\, Ph.D.\, and professor David Myers. During the 2017-2018 academic year\, Ibish and Myers came to campus to deliver a three-part series on the history of this conflict. Five years later\, they return to Fordham to offer an in-depth perspective on the history of Israel-Palestine in light of the current moment. \nThis is the fourth in a four-part series. For more information about the series\, please visit https://jewishstudies.ace.fordham.edu/how-did-we-get-here-a-deep-dive-into-the-history-of-israel-and-palestine/. \nAbout the Speakers\nHussein Ibish is a senior resident scholar at the Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington. He is a weekly columnist for The National and previously served as a senior fellow at the American Task Force on Palestine. \nDavid N. Myers is a distinguished professor and the Sady and Ludwig Kahn Chair of Jewish History at UCLA. The author and editor of many books\, he directs the UCLA Luskin Center for History and Policy and the UCLA Initiative to Study Hate.

SUMMARY:On Asian American Literature (and Life) in the Time of COVID
DESCRIPTION:The Fordham University Department of English is pleased to announce the appointment of Stephen Hong Sohn\, Ph.D.\, as the Thomas F. X. and Theresa Mullarkey Chair in Literature and requests the pleasure of your company at his installation ceremony and inaugural lecture. A reception will immediately follow the lecture. \nIn this talk\, Sohn will explore the various ways his professional life\, research\, and relationship with Asian American literature have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Sohn will detail how he first accepted his offer to come to Fordham in January 2020 and how the COVID-19 lockdown period enabled him to complete a book even as he was compelled to initiate a new research project. His experiences reading Asian American literature shifted radically\, beginning in March 2020 as the pandemic complicated how he engaged with genres like science fiction and fantasy\, and his subsequent move to New York City continued to push him to develop this line of thinking further. He will also describe his current and upcoming book projects\, focusing first on the importance of speculative fiction as a site of radical potentiality and then detailing the crucial place of Asian American literature and studies as a site of care work. \n\nThe Mullarkey Chair in Literature was established at Fordham by Theresa Mullarkey in memory of her husband\, Thomas F. X. Mullarkey\, FCRH ’54\, LAW ’59\, and as a continuation of his long-standing support of Fordham and the humanities.
