SUMMARY:Transforming Moments: A Conversation With Diane Von Furstenberg
DESCRIPTION:Before she was an international fashion icon and a member of the TIME 100\, Diane von Furstenberg was a young girl growing up with parents who had just survived the Holocaust. Her father\, originally from Moldova\, escaped the Nazis in Switzerland. Her mother\, originally from Greece\, fought the Nazis as a member of the resistance until she was captured and sent to Auschwitz. Join the Museum for a conversation with von Furstenberg about her identity as the daughter of survivors and how it has informed her remarkable career at the helm of one of the world’s most recognizable brands. She will be in conversation with Dr. Eva Fogelman\, renowned psychologist and author of the Pulitzer Prize-nominated book Conscience and Courage: Rescuers of Jews During the Holocaust.

SUMMARY:Unequal Cities: Overcoming Anti-Urban Bias to Reduce Inequality in the United States
DESCRIPTION:Book presentation. Cities are central to prosperity: they are hubs of innovation and growth. Yet the economic vitality of wealthy cities is marred by persistent and pervasive inequality. In his new book Unequal Cities\, economist Richard McGahey argues that deeply entrenched anti-urban policies and politics limit cities’ options to address inequality. Many factors – structural racism\, suburban subsidies\, regional government fragmentation\, the hostility of state legislatures\, and federal policy – contribute to an unequal status quo that underfunds cities while preventing them from pursuing fairer outcomes. Drawing on economic and historical analysis as well as his extensive experience in government and philanthropy\, the author examines the failures of public policy and conventional economic wisdom that have led to the neglect of American cities.

SUMMARY:The History of Antisemitism: Blood Libel
DESCRIPTION:Throughout history\, Jews have been accused of using the blood of non-Jews for “rituals.” This accusation\, which as come to be called “blood libel\,” dates to the second century BCE and continued to grow with the spread of Christianity. In the Middle Ages\, the motif made its way into art and literature like Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales. These charges continued through the Nazi era; there was even an accusation in upstate New York in 1928. Today\, the Roman Catholic Church repudiates blood libel\, but accusations continue throughout the world. Join the Museum for a panel discussion about this history and the role it plays in contemporary antisemitism
