Congratulations to @ankahajkova.bsky.social, whose book People without History Are Dust has won the National Jewish Book Award (Holocaust category).
This book magnificently reframes Holocaust history by centering queer desire and intimacy.

Unfortunately the Book of Esther provides lots of food for thought these days. But pulling treasures from the 16th through the 21st centuries was a salve for a sore soul. With prayers for a joyful #Purim. #JewishHistory #BookHistory

Around 483 BCE, Haman described Jews as “a certain people…whose customs are different.” In celebration of Purim, read A VISIT TO MOSCOW, illustrated by Yevgenia Nayberg, for a vivid portrayal of the Jewish difference that has long unsettled totalitarianism.

On National Rugelach Day, A Look Into the History of Rugelach in NYC - Untapped New York This year and beyond, April 29 is National Rugelach Day, honoring the popular Jewish confection, thanks to Lee Lee's Baked Goods in Harlem.

Rugelach has been a NYC staple since Jewish immigrants brought the Polish pastry to the Lower East Side in the late 1800s. These crescent-shaped treats tell the story of Jewish culinary traditions.

Rewording isn’t neutral — it hurts.

For families who lost loved ones on October 7, softened language feels like grief being rewritten. Remembrance requires honesty. Call it what it was.
