bumped into a lefty yiddish-interested friend at a party last nite who I haven't talked to in a few months and was rambling about how Montreal Jewish Public Library has a very fragile paper copy of this book and how wowed I was to see it 2 months back. 😍

'In her new book, Molly Crabapple brings to life the extraordinary story of the secular #JewishLaborBund, which was active in #EasternEurope beginning in 1897 and continued its work into the 1930s. The #Bundists sought dignity and equality “here where we live,” not in a distant homeland.'

They tried to smear him as an antisemite – but Mayor #ZohranMamdani walks in a rich #Jewish tradition
When I look at Mamdani, I don’t see some radical departure. I see him as an heir to the #Yiddish socialism that helped build #NewYorkhttps://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/jan/01/zohran-mamdani-new-york-mayor-antisemitism

Opinion - Molly Crabapple
1 Jan 2026[very heart-warming and informative article]
Bruce Vladeck, a member of one of #Mamdani’s transition committees, is a well-respected expert on Medicare...
Vladeck is the grandson of Baruch C. Vladeck, a #Marxist troublemaker from the Pale of Settlement, a tract of land in the Russian empire where #Jews were permitted to live at a time of rampant #antisemitic oppression.
Vladeck was not actually his birth name. It was rather a nom de guerre, adopted when he joined the #JewishLaborBund, the #socialist, secular and defiantly #AntiZionist movement whose slogan, “here where we live is our country,” would make an apt tagline for #Mamdani’s New York.
