Arbeter Ring Celebrates with Gala Concert


Arbeter Ring (Workmen's Circle) in California is celebrating over one 
hundred years of activism, community, and Yidishkayt. The public is 
invited to Honoring our Heroes, Raising our Voices, on Sunday, January 31, 
2010. A reception at 1:30 pm will be followed by the program at 2:30 pm. 
Folk musician and social satirist Roy Zimmerman will give a full-length 
concert. The event takes place at the Unitarian Universalist Church of 
Studio City, 12355 Moorpark St.

The celebration honors community members who represent the values of the 
Arbeter Ring. Receiving the Rabbi Melvin S. & Erna B. Sands Memorial Award 
for Human Rights is the California Nurses Association, leading the fight 
for unionization of California nurses and affecting healthcare law 
(mandated nurse-to-patient ratios, etc.). It is also helping nurses 
organize throughout the country. CNA stands at the forefront of the 
healing community, endorsing Guaranteed Healthcare for Everyone for Life 
through a single payer or Medicare for All system.

The Arbeter Ring Yidishkayt Award goes to Janet Hadda. Dr. Hadda is a 
former professor of Yiddish at UCLA and a practicing and supervising 
psychoanalyst. Aside from many academic papers and articles, she has 
authored three major studies in Yiddish literature: biographies of Isaac 
Bashevis Singer and Yankev Glatshteyn, and a book-length treatment of 
suicide in Yiddish literature. She has inspired a generation of new 
Yiddishists through her work.
