Although recent scholarship has examined gender issues in Judaism with regard to texts, rituals, and the rabbinate, there has been no full-length examination of the education of Jewish children in day schools. Drawing on studies in education, social science, and psychology, as well as personal interviews, the authors show how traditional (mainly Orthodox) day school education continues to re-inscribe gender inequities and socialize students into unhealthy gender identities and relationships. They address pedagogy, school practices, curricula, and textbooks, as along with single-sex versus coed schooling, dress codes, sex education, Jewish rituals, and gender hierarchies in educational leadership. Drawing a stark picture of the many ways both girls and boys are molded into gender identities, the authors offer concrete resources and suggestions for transforming educational practice.

Since the horrific attacks of October 7, 2023, and throughout the ensuing war against Hamas and its Iranian sponsors, one thing has never wavered: the extraordinary resilience of the Israeli people. Forged from more than seventy-five years of adversity, the legendary determination of Israel’s population has enabled the nation to survive and even thrive through constant tragedy and external threats. But Israeli strength is not just about buttressing the Jewish state; it is also reflected in the values and powerful altruism that the Israeli people demonstrate toward others throughout the world. In this book, you’ll experience the remarkable, inspiring, and often unbelievable stories of Israel’s unsung heroes: individuals who are risking their lives to save others and partnering with people around the world to build stronger, healthier, and more prosperous societies. Stand-Up Nation is more than a celebration of Israel—it’s a blueprint for social entrepreneurs asking if one person can actually make a meaningful difference and help heal our suffering world.

Thirteen-year-old Shida, whose name means "problem" in Swahili, certainly has a lot of problems in her life -- her father is dead, her depressed mother is rumored to be a witch, and everyone in her rural Tanzanian village expects her to marry rather than pursue her dream of becoming a healer. So when the village's elders make a controversial decision to move their people to a nearby village, Shida welcomes the change. Surely the opportunity to go to school and learn from a nurse can only mean good things. However, after a series of puzzling misfortunes plague the new village, Shida must prove to her people that moving was the right decision, and that they can have a better life in their new home. For author pictures of Tanzania, a video depicting the life of a modern Tanzanian girl, discussion questions for each chapter of the book, and suggestions for further reading, please go to katie-quirk.com and follow the links for A Girl Called Problem.
