SHOW NOTES: https://jewishbooks.blogspot.com/2024/08/the-mitzvah-of-voting-edited-encore.html TRANSCRIPT: https://otter.ai/u/ql3_Vi81NBwkvNT97SKZiyh8_yM?utm_source=copy_url Four years ago in 2020 at the height of the pandemic, I ran a 3-part series called The Mitzvah of Voting. Here we are in 2024 in a presidential election year again and defending our democracy is more important than ever! Here's an edited encore presentation of that 2020 podcast, with all three parts combined and streamlined. You'll hear inspiring words and calls to action from some of your favorite authors, recorded in 2020 but as relevant as ever. We cap it off with Sarah Aroeste's Ladino song "Gracia" (English lyrics below), a tribute to the medieval Sephardic heroine, Doña Gracia Nasi who lived in the 1500's and saved hundreds of Jews from the Inquisition. The theme of the song is that activists of the past inspire us to activism in our own time. I hope you will be inspired to VOTE!

SHOW NOTES: https://jewishbooks.blogspot.com/2024/05/ruth-behar-on-across-so-many-seas.html Lucky Broken Girl, Letters from Cuba, Tia Fortuna's New Home, and now, Across So Many Seas. Award winning author Ruth Behar keeps finding new ways to share her Sephardic and Ashkenazi Cuban Jewish heritage with us, and it's fresh and fascinating every time. In her latest sweeping middle grade novel, Across So Many Seas, she introduces us to four generations of a Sephardic family, from the Spanish Inquisition to modern times. Like the Ladino song woven into the story of each of the 12 year old protagonists, this book is a poignant and powerful ode to sorrow and connection and joy.   LEARN MORE: Transcript of interview Ruth Behar's website Playlist of music from Across So Many Seas Educator's Guide to Across So Many Seas Buy Across So Many Seas Ruth's tikkun olam suggestion: The American Ladino League Ruth's Sephardic reading recommendations: * board book Mazal Bueno by past podcast guest Sarah Aroeste * graphic novel We Are Not Strangers by Josh Tuininga * novel Kantika by Elizabeth Graver * nonfiction One Hundred Saturdays: Stella Levi and the Search for a Lost World by Michael Frank Ruth's documentary film Adio Kerida - rent for $3.99 on Vimeo JEWISH AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH: See daily reading recommendations!

Welcome back to Just For This, a new podcast. Each week, host Rabbi Liz P.G. Hirsch (she/her) will interview women in leadership about women and leadership. Inspired by the story of Esther, we feature powerful stories of women who stand out in their fields, who have stepped up just for this moment.  This week's guest is Sarah Aroeste - musician, writer, cultural leader. Inspired by her family's Sephardic roots, she writes and sings in Ladino, the Judeo-Spanish dialect that originated by Spanish Jews after their expulsion from Spain in 1492.  We spoke about family stories, musical leadership, the great Doña Gracia Nasi, and Jewish communities from Western Massachusetts to N. Macedonia. We also discuss access to childcare and paid leave as key issues for women's leadership and equity. Mentioned in this episode: Sarah shares with us about Monastir, the community in N. Macedonia where she traces her family's roots. You can hear some of Sarah's music in the episode and more of it here. Learn more about the work of Women of Reform Judaism on paid family medical leave, which we discuss in the context of access to childcare.

Honored to welcome two special guests to the podcast today: musician Sarah Aroeste and chef Susan Barocas. They share unique connections as Sephardic Jews with roots tracing back to a large, influential, and ancient Macedonian town. Sadly, during the Holocaust, nearly the entire population of that town was lost - a shocking 98%, in fact. Both Sarah and Susan are passionate about preserving Sephardic culture. As enthusiastic researchers, they delve deep into historical records, oral traditions, and stories. Together, they're on a mission to curate and share this rich heritage with all of us. But what makes their "Savor! project unique and truly remarkable is how they express this shared passion differently. The "Savor" experience is, in part, a music album filled of Sephardic songs about food, sung in the Ladino language. It's also a collection of recipes that go hand in hand with each song. Plus, Susan and Sarah have created videos featuring female chefs demonstrating these recipes, all while discussing their personal connection to food and Sephardic culture. As we approach the Jewish High Holy Days, I'm thrilled to have Sarah and Susan here to discuss Sephardic history and heritage. As you'll hear, they teach me so much, not only about Sephardic culture, but also about the profound role of food and music in preserving heritage, tradition, history, values, and stories. Highlights A concept album: How the Savor project of pairing Sephardic recipes & songs began  Sarah and Susan's shared heritage in Bitola (formerly Monastir) in Northern Macedonia, where 98% of the town was exterminated in the Holocaust The distinctions among Jews (Sephardic vs. Ashkenazi) are a modern construction When & how did the lineages and stories of Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jews  How the geography, language (Ladino), and music of the Sephardics developed The core elements of liturgy and customs that unite all Jews The effects of the multi-century Spanish Inquisition on the entire Jewish populations, especially Sephardic Jews The Holocaust was deadly for Sephardic Jews as well Sarah's story: “Music was my life.” How Sarah pivoted from classical opera to performing as a Ladino singer. How did Sarah and her mentor uncovered and created Ladino music No such thing as “authentic” or “traditional” Sephardic music or recipes Sopa de Ajo: Allium Soap - Why Sarah chose it Alliums and the Inquisition Susan's story: Her father as teacher How Sephardic cooking spread to and melded with the rest of the world's cuisine How to prepare garlic until it's “mellow, sweet, and flavorful” Susan's tips for preparing leeks Listen to Guest Now Learn More About the SAVOR Experience!

When is making music about community survival? For Ladino singer Sarah Aroeste, her role is as much as a cultural preservationist. Although she was raised in suburban New Jersey, Sarah's family heritage goes back to the town of Monastir in Macedonia, where 98% of the Jewish population were killed during the Holocaust, and beyond that to the Iberian peninsula, where Jews were expelled during the Spanish Inquisition. Since establishing herself as a professional musician, Sarah has made it her mission to contribute to a thriving modern library of songs in Ladino, the unique language of the Jews in this region. During our conversation, Jack and Sarah discuss how she is creating opportunities for young people to connect to their Sephardic heritage through not just music, but also literacy and food; and Sarah explains why her work pushing back against cultural assimilation is particularly poignant during the festival of Hanukkah.

What would it be like to return to the village your ancestors called home, to walk in their footsteps, and try to recover their stories and culture? Ladino singer and songwriter Sarah Aroeste did just that for her seventh album, which honors what was once the largest Jewish community in the country now known as North Macedonia. In the mountainous city of Bitola, formerly known as Monastir, 98% of the Jewish population that remained after the Balkan Wars was deported in 1943, and murdered by the Nazis and their collaborators. To mark International Holocaust Remembrance Day, Aroeste talks about her experiences in Monastir, explains why Sephardic culture is Jewish culture, and performs her song “Mi Monastir.” Then, Manya Brachear Pashman talks about the challenge of confronting and processing the antisemitic attack on a synagogue in Colleyville, Texas. ____ Episode Lineup: (0:40) Sarah Aroeste (27:53) Manya Brachear Pashman ____ Show notes: Episode photos, courtesy of Sarah Aroeste:  Sarah Aroeste's cousin Rachel Nachmias (bottom left) and family, c. 1922.  Nahmias family, c. 1922.

In 2000, renowned Holocaust scholar Dr. Deborah Lipstadt was sued by David Irving for defamation, because she called Irving a Holocaust denier and falsifier of history in her 1994 book Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault on Truth and Memory. Expert witnesses combed through Irving's research since the 1980s and found that Lipstadt was correct - Irving had deliberately manipulated the historical record, to support his ludicrous claims that most of the evidence of the Holocaust had been invented after the war. Listen to AJC CEO David Harris discuss the impact of the trial, and the quiet, global, multi-year effort he led to generate support for Lipstadt's trial defense, making sure the world never forgets the murder of six million Jews – a historical fact. ___ Episode Lineup: (0:40) David Harris ___ Show Notes: Take action.  Join AJC in calling for the White House to convene a taskforce that will develop a national action plan to fight anti-Jewish hate.  Urge the Senate to confirm Deborah Lipstadt as the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism.  Listen to our most recent episode: Inside the Colleyville, Texas Synagogue Hostage Crisis: Hear from 3 Local Jewish and Muslim Leaders on What It Was Like on the Ground Don't forget to subscribe to People of the Pod on your favorite podcast app, and learn more at AJC.org/PeopleofthePod Keep an eye out for our next episode marking International Holocaust Remembrance, in which we learn about the lost Jewish community of Monastir from Ladino singer and songwriter Sarah Aroeste.  You can reach us at: peopleofthepod@ajc.org If you've enjoyed this episode, please be sure to tell your friends, tag us on social media with #PeopleofthePod, and hop onto Apple Podcasts to rate us and write a review, to help more listeners find us.

Welcome to the third and final entry in our series, The Mitzvah of Voting. It's October 2020 your favorite Jewish kidlit authors want all eligible US citizens to vote in the upcoming Presidential election, and listeners around the world to vote in their own local elections.

This time, we will leave you with some musical inspiration to carry you through Election Day. Once again, I want to remind you that, as always, the views expressed on this podcast do not necessarily represent the views of our host organization, Congregation B'nai Israel of Boca Raton, Florida. One of today's guests, Sarah Aroeste, is not only an author, she's also a singer songwriter who performs in Ladino, the Judeo-Spanish dialect that became the tongue of Spanish Jews after their expulsion from Spain in 1492. I'm excited to tell you that Sarah is sharing a full song with us today, the title song from her album Gracia. The word GRACIA means THANKS and GRACE but it's also a tribute to the medieval Sephardic heroine, Doña Gracia Nasi who lived in the 1500s and saved hundreds of Jews from the Inquisition. The main idea of the song is that activists of the past inspire us to activism in our own time.

This week we visit with Sarah Aroeste.

She's spent the last 15 years bringing her contemporary style of original and traditional Ladino music to audiences around the world. On July 15, 2018 she'll be taking the stage at Yidstock along with Anthony Russell. Episode 0186 May 23, 2018 Yiddish Book Center Amherst, MA

In honor of Passover, we're listening to some new music about another Jewish festival - this week features Hanukkah songs released in 2017! Incidentally, both are raps about food - "8 Days of Latkes" by Ben Schwartz (THE Ben Scwartz) and "Bimuelo" by Sarah Aroeste featuring Kosha Dillz.

On this episode, we talk with Seth Rogovoy, Yidstock artistic director, about the lineup for Yidstock 2018, which will include performances by David Krakauer, Anthony Russell, the Heather Klein Duo, Socalled, and Sarah Aroeste—and those are just a few of the performers who will take to the stage. Seth gives us a preview of everything that's in store for this year's event—from workshops to talks to concerts—and provides some background on klezmer and new Yiddish music.

The languages we speak define who we are. What were to happen if you discovered a language that changed the course of your life? Sarah Aroeste (@SarahAroeste) discusses this in depth in this interview. Sarah has forged a remarkable international, award-winning career by singing in the Sephardic language of Ladino. Sarah talks about infusing both her own original songs as well as 15th-century Ladino folks songs with her unique blend of pop, rock, and jazz.

This week on Unorthodox: Israeli actress Gal Gadot proves she’s Wonder Woman off-screen, too. Our Jewish guest is Ladino singer-songwriter Sarah Aroeste, who tells us what Ladino is, and why it’s so important to keep the Sephardic language and culture alive. She performs a song from her new Ladino children’s album, and (warning!) even gets the hosts to sing along. Our Gentile of the Week is ACLU lawyer Gillian Thomas, whose new book, Because of Sex: One Law, Ten Cases, and Fifty Years That Changed American Women’s Lives at Work, explores the impact of Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which prohibited gender discrimination in the workplace. She tells us how much progress we've actually made in the 50 years since the trailblazing women she profiles took their fight for workplace equality to the Supreme Court. We love to hear from you!
