[ha-Safran] Hungarian Pinkasim now in public

2021-09-09 Thread Yoel Finkelman via Hasafran
I'm happy to report that some of the Pinkasim that have been removed recently 
from auction are being purchased jointly by the National Library of Israel and 
the Hungarian Jewish Museum and Archives.

I that that this is the right solution for similar documents without clear 
provenance that are currently in private hands.

Dear Scott and Safranim,

I have some LGBTQ Jewish blog posts up already and am currently working on
a research guide that's not quite ready (there are sections for memoirs and
autobiography, faith and identity, and anthologies, to start). Everything
listed here is available through The New York Public Library.

I am interested in learning about what other resources people have to
share, too.

Best wishes,
Amanda

[ha-Safran] Positive books about Israel

2021-09-09 Thread Marlene Schiffman via Hasafran
I have received a letter from a friend of mine about this problem. Can anyone 
forward the information so that he can access a bibliography of books that are 
positive about Israel. Thanks.
I have been involved with a project concerning the Philadelphia 
Free Library.  This is an extremely well-funded institution, the city alone 
gives over $48 million, which shockingly has been involved with programming 
that is extremely anti-Israel.  A meeting was held between a ZOA 
representative, the Federation and the Library.  In trying to find books that 
present Israel in a positive light, we find that there are very few books that 
present history in a way that young people can understand.

Some of these books include references to "stolen" land.  One 
refers to "occupation", and another shows an outline of what we recognize as 
modern-day Israel and labels it "Palestine", erasing Israel entirely.  This 
book is called "Baba, What Does My Name Mean?" - please look it up and check it 
out. I wanted to suggest that these libraries offer some books about Israel and 
Zionism for children so that there will be balance - but none seem to have the 
quality and richness nor present the Israel/Jewish/Zionist story in a way that 
younger kids could relate or understand as the book I refer to do with the 
anti-Israel narrative.

Given your own involvement with publication, I thought that perhaps 
you could steer me in the right direction to those who would write or have 
knowledge about books demonstrating Israel and its Jewish connection in a fair, 
honest, and positive way.

Thank you very much.  Once again, all the best.
