12:00PM 01:00PM Xenophobia in America: How We Got Here and What's at Stake: University Event Topic: Lectures & MeetingsSchool: All Emory UniversityDepartment / Organization: James Weldon Johnson Institute for the Study of Race and DifferenceMeeting Organizer/Sponsor: James Weldon Johnson InstituteSpeaker/Presenter: Dr. Erika Lee - University of MinnesotaEvent Open To: All (Public)Cost: FreeRegistration / R.S.V.P. link: https://emory.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_qD6qej8gQXS2IzQ8LsnZsgContact Name: Rhonda PatrickContact Email: rhonda.patrick@emory.eduThe United States is known as a nation of immigrants. But as award-winning author and historian Erika Lee will discuss in our next colloquium, the US is also a nation of xenophobia. An irrational fear, hatred, and hostility toward immigrants has been a defining feature of our nation from the colonial era to the Trump era. Benjamin Franklin ridiculed Germans for their “strange and foreign ways.” Americans’ anxiety over Irish Catholics turned xenophobia into a national political movement. Chinese immigrants were excluded, Japanese incarcerated, and Mexicans deported. Today, Americans fear Muslims, Latinos, and the so-called browning of America. Drawing from her new book, America for Americans: A History of Xenophobia in the United States, Lee forces us to confront this history and explains how xenophobia works, why it has endured, and how it threatens America. + Zoom Event Campus Events

Fishman of The Jewish Theological Seminary. This lecture, hosted by the Tam Institute for Jewish Studies at Emory University, will be conducted virtually via Zoom. In Vilna, the city Jews called “The Jerusalem of Lithuania,” a group of ghetto inmates risked their lives to rescue thousands of rare books, documents, and works of art from the Nazis. In an operation that lasted eighteen months, they smuggled the materials past guards and buried them in bunkers. Those members of the group who survived the War returned to Vilna after the city’s liberation and dug up the materials. They eventually smuggled the books across Europe until they reached the United States and Israel. What did they rescue, and why did they do it? This event is free and open to the public. Registration required. + Online Campus Events
