The Jews - gotto admire them


Jewish diaspora explored in book group.The Jewish diaspora is such a strong diaspora, the love for their culture and tradition abound. For a community to integrate and succeed in different homelands is a feat in itself. What I mostly appreciate is their committment to promoting Jewish arts and culture.

Literature of the Jewish diaspora will be the focus of an upcoming reading and discussion group to be held at the Wayland Public Library this autumn.

The series is part of an ongoing program titled “Let’s Talk About! Jewish Literature: Identity and Imagination,” a collaboration between the American Library Association (ALA) and Nextbook, which describes itself as a gateway to Jewish literature, culture and ideas. In addition, the series is supported by Friends of the Wayland Library.


I think some smart second generation Indians from the diaspora need to look at creative ways of preserving culture. Solidarity is the key word here! We have the literature, we have the film and god knows some Desi's have the money to support such forums.

About the blog

This blog was chronicling my Ph.D journey, which I am no longer pursuing. Since I will always like reviewing film and talking about Indian family and street culture, this blog takes a different turn.
