In observance of International Women's Day, HBI is honored to host Pamela S. Nadell, PhD, author of "Antisemitism, an American Tradition" (W.W. Norton, 2025), as the 2026 Diane Markowicz Memorial Lecture on Gender and Human Rights guest speaker. Professor Nadell will deliver this lecture with a particular focus on American Jewish women’s experiences of antisemitism.
Introductory remarks by Brandeis University President Arthur Levine.
Professor Nadell holds the Patrick Clendenen Chair in Women’s and Gender History at American University. She is the author of nine books, including "America’s Jewish Women: A History from Colonial Times to Today" which won the 2019 National Jewish Book Award’s Everett Family Foundation “Book of the Year” and was translated into Hebrew.
The Diane Markowicz Memorial Lecture Series was created by Project on Gender, Culture, Religion and the Law founder Sylvia Neil and her husband Dan Fischel in memory of Sylvia’s late sister, Diane Markowicz, to honor her commitment to gender equality and social justice. The Lecture Series features internationally renowned scholars, judges and activists discussing ways of negotiating the tensions between gender equality and religious or cultural norms.
Books will be available for purchase at the event and are also available widely: https://www.pamelanadell.com/
