Informationen zum Autor Pamela S. Nadell holds the Patrick Clendenen Chair in Women’s and Gender History and directs the Jewish Studies Program at American University. Her works include America’s Jewish Women , winner of the 2019 National Jewish Book Award’s Jewish Book of the Year, and Women Who Would Be Rabbis . Past president of the Association for Jewish Studies, she lives in North Bethesda, Maryland. Klappentext Pamela S. Nadell weaves together the complex story of Jewish women in America-from colonial-era matriarch Grace Nathan and her great-granddaughter, poet Emma Lazarus, to Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Recounting how Jewish women have been at the forefront of social, economic, and political causes for centuries, Nadell shows them fighting for suffrage, labor unions, civil rights, feminism, and religious rights-shaping a distinctly Jewish American identity. Zusammenfassung A groundbreaking history of how Jewish women maintained their identity and influenced social activism as they wrote themselves into American history.
