JEM: Fleeing Arab Lands: An Analysis of Challenges for Jews . . . January 16, 2023 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm via Zoom Speaker: Paul Socken Naim Kattan’s memoir, Farewell Babylon (1976), is one of the many stories of the 850,000 Jews forced to flee Arab lands after the creation of the State of Israel. We will discuss the memoir and gain insight into the plight of those Jews who lost everything and had to start again. In the process, we will also address the issue of today’s refugees, such as those in Ukraine, whose suffering we witness on the news every day. Finally, this talk will demonstrate the significance of the reborn Jewish state for all Jews today. Professor Paul Socken (Ph.D., University of Toronto) was on the faculty of the University of Waterloo for 37 years and is currently Distinguished Professor Emeritus. He is a former Chairman of the Department of French Studies and the founder of the Jewish Studies programme at Waterloo. He is the author of several books, including The Edge of the Precipice: Why Read Literature in the Digital Age? (McGill-Queen’s University Press, 2013) and has been a contributor to The Canadian Jewish News and other Jewish newspapers such as Algemeiner and The Jewish Journal of Los Angeles.
