b'Title: "Multiculturalism, Jewish Marginalization and Gender"\\n\\nDate: April 8, 2015\\n\\nSpeaker: Jennifer Roskies\\n\\nAffiliation: Jerusalem Center of Public Affairs \\n\\nLocation: McGill University, Montreal, Canada\\n\\nDescription: Jennifer Roskies examines why the focus of the majority of Jewish scholarship is largely to look inward - within Jewish society - while largely omitting the effect of the Jews on American society. This omission also pertains to Jewish women and Jewish feminist studies. Roskies notes that this omission of Jews \\u2013 both women and men \\u2013 from American multicultural studies research leaves a gap in our understanding of American modernity as well as a full understanding of American and North American Jewry.'
