Conference: Revisiting Jewish Feminism: The Jüdische Frauenbund, a Contemporary Perspective on its 120th Jubilee
November 18-20, 2024
Jüdisches Museum Frankfurt, Bertha-Pappenheim-Platz 1, 60311 Frankfurt am Main
Participation is free of charge, but registration is necessary
In June 1904, a group of Jewish female activists that had gathered in Berlin for an International Congress of Women established the Jüdische Frauenbund (JFB), the League of Jewish Women in Germany. This conference, organized by the Leo Baeck Institute Jerusalem, the Moses Mendelssohn Center for European-Jewish Studies in Potsdam, the Institute for the History of the German Jews in Hamburg, and hosted by the Jewish Museum Frankfurt, will not only commemorate the 120th jubilee of the founding, but re-examine the history of Jews in Germany in the decades preceding World War II from the perspective of women and gender. Moreover, it aims to explore the ramifications and ongoing significance of the German Jewish women’s movement for twenty-first century Judaism and feminism.
