SUMMARY:Food for Thought: Jews\, Schmaltz\, and Crisco in the Age of Industrial Food
DESCRIPTION:Crisco has been marketed to Jews as “truly clean and truly kosher.” In the early twentieth century\, Procter & Gamble conducted a series of advertising campaigns to convince Jewish women to change their preferred cooking fats from butter and schmaltz (rendered poultry fat) to Crisco. The success of this early example of targeted marketing reveals how American Jews have changed as religious practitioners and as consumers. Jewish home cooks\, generally women\, were persuaded to relinquish authority to corporate experts not only in matters of cuisine and health\, but also in religious practices related to food production and consumption. Examining Crisco’s targeted advertising to Jews helps us consider who is\, and who should be\, an authority in the modern Jewish kitchen. \nRachel B. Gross is a Professor of American Jewish Studies at San Francisco State University. She is a scholar of religious studies whose work focuses on the lives\, spaces\, and objects of twentieth-century and contemporary American Jews. Dr. Gross received her Ph.D. from Princeton University.

SUMMARY:Food For Thought: Stumbling Blocks\, a Second Generation Holocaust Memoir
DESCRIPTION:ChatGPT said:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn honor of International Holocaust Remembrance Day this January\, join author Jennifer Krebs for a thoughtful discussion of the themes in her book\, including how displacement\, persecution\, and fear can echo from one generation to the next. Jennifer will reflect on her father’s childhood in Germany and contrast it with her own upbringing in Western New York\, exploring how their experiences shaped identity\, memory\, and resilience. She will also share the story of her own “big move” to the Bay Area in 1982\, drawn by the LGBT community\, and how that journey fits into her broader family legacy. \nJennifer Krebs is a writer based in the San Francisco Bay Area and New York’s Catskills. As a second generation Holocaust descendant\, she draws on her family’s lived experience to examine trauma\, memory\, and the enduring strength of survival. She is a semi retired environmental planner\, and her memoir Stumbling Blocks\, a Second Generation Holocaust Memoir was published in July 2025.

SUMMARY:PJCC Israel Forum
DESCRIPTION:Back to the Future: Why 2026 Feels Like 1977 to Israelis? \nJoin us for an evening of learning and conversation with Professor Amichai Magen from Stanford University. \nIsrael’s 1977 elections marked not only a historic transfer of power from Labor Zionism to Likud but also a deep structural shift in the country’s social fabric and political identity. As Israel approaches high-stakes elections in 2026\, many observers see strong echoes of that earlier transformation—the moment known as the Ma’apach (“The Turnover”). \nProfessor Magen serves as Director of the Jan Koum Israel Studies Program at Stanford’s Center on Democracy\, Development\, and the Rule of Law (CDDRL) and is Affiliated Faculty at the Taube Center for Jewish Studies. \n7:15 PM doors open | 7:30 PM program begins \n\n Free & Open to the Community
