SUMMARY:Cry\, My Heart\, Cry!
DESCRIPTION:The Museum welcomes the Zisl Slepovitch Ensemble and Sasha Lurje to present a selection of songs that Dr. D. Zisl Slepovitch has discovered\, curated\, transcribed\, and arranged working as a Musician-in-Residence at the Fortunoff Video Archive for Holocaust Testimonies at Yale University\, a unique collection of 4\,400 interviews conducted in the 1980s–2000s. The songs in the program provide a series of insights into the Holocaust survivors’ experiences both during World War II and in the pre- and inter-war years as they were growing up in Eastern\, Southern\, and Central Europe. The compositions form a timeline that recreates a dynamic\, multidimensional image of people’s lives and the multiple identities they carried — as Jews by faith and roots\, and as citizens of different European countries. At the core of the program are the unique songs and poetry (some never publicly performed before) that ghetto and camp prisoners composed and performed during the Holocaust.

SUMMARY:The Fulton Fish Market: A History
DESCRIPTION:Today\, the once bustling\, fragrant fish market in lower Manhattan’s South Street Seaport is a rebuilt retail destination with a new kind of marketing –  but from its founding in 1822\, through its move to the Bronx in 2005\, the Fulton Fish Market was an iconic New York institution. At first a neighborhood market for many different kinds of food\, by the late nineteenth century\, it became the nation’s largest fish and seafood wholesaling center. Thousands of immigrants worked at the Fulton Fish Market and introduced the rest of the city to their seafood traditions. In popular culture\, the market evoked images of the animated East River waterfront\, late-night fishmongering\, organized crime\, and a vanished working-class New York. In his new book The Fulton Fish Market: A History (Columbia University Press\, 2022)\, historian Jonathan H. Rees examines the market’s workings and significance\, tracing the transportation\, retailing\, and consumption of fish. Rees tells the stories of the people and institutions  – including fishermen\, retail stores\, restaurants\, and chefs – bringing together technological\, culinary\, and environmental history to explain how changes in the urban landscape and economy affected the history of the market and the surrounding neighborhood.

SUMMARY:The History of Antisemitism – Kill the Hollywood Jews: The Prewar Origins of Film Noir with Steven J. Ross
DESCRIPTION:When Nazi plans were learned and promptly ignored by local and federal authorities in Los Angeles\, a number of Jews working in Hollywood secretly funded a spy ring that operated from August 1933 until the end of WWII. These spies uncovered a series of plots aimed at attracting international attention to the Nazi cause and sparking a wave of deadly pogroms throughout the U.S. The most nefarious plot involved blowing up the homes of twenty-four of Hollywood’s most famous figures\, twenty-two of whom were Jewish. Many aspects of film noir\, the genre borne out of 1930s and ’40s Lost Angeles\, reflect these experiences\, along with witnessing corrupt officials and crime unpunished\, and the experiences of a post-war sense of dread. Learn these incredible stories with historian Steven J. Ross.

SUMMARY:Anna May Wong: The Trailblazing Chinese American Actress on US Currency
DESCRIPTION:History was made on Oct. 24\, 2022 when for the first time the image of an Asian American appeared on United States currency. This distinct honor goes to Anna May Wong (黄柳霜)\, a groundbreaking actress in the 20th century during the rise of the film industry and a champion for Asian American representation in film. Born in 1905\, Anna May Wong was the granddaughter of a Chinese immigrant. Growing up in Los Angeles\, she found herself at the epicenter of a nascent Hollywood film industry\, with productions setting up equipment in her neighborhood. Film roles followed\, though opportunities were limited by the ethnic stereotyping common at the time. Despite those barriers\, Wong had a storied career\, becoming the first Asian American actor to get top billing in a Hollywood production (Toll of the Sea) in 1922 and even founding her own production company\, Anna May Wong Productions. A year before she died at the age of 56 in 1961\, she received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in recognition of her advocacy for greater representation of Asian Americans in Hollywood and cinematic achievements. To better understand Anna May Wong’s extraordinary life and career\, the Renwen Society presents a lecture on January 14\, 2023 by Dr. Yu Juan\, a research on Anna May Wong. Dr. Yu will present Wong’s life in general\, and her visit back to China in 1936 in particular. Dr. Yu will illustrate her talk with rare film footage of Anna May Wong in China.
