Explore the complex histories, debates, and contemporary trajectories of Arab feminism in this advanced Arabic course, Arab Feminism. The course offers an interdisciplinary engagement with feminist thought, activism, cultural production, and struggles for social justice across the Arab world (but sometimes, not only), while further developing students’ advanced Arabic language skills. Through literary texts, political writings, media, film, manifestos, and intellectual debates, students will examine how feminist movements in the region have emerged in relation to colonialism, nationalism, state formation, religion, capitalism, and social transformation. The course highlights the diverse voices and experiences that have shaped feminist thought and practice across different Arab contexts, moving beyond simplified or monolithic understandings of “Arab feminism.” At the same time, the course situates Arab feminist traditions within broader global feminist conversations. Students will engage in comparative discussions with Black feminisms, postcolonial feminisms, intersectional feminisms, Latin American feminisms, and other Global South feminist frameworks in order to explore both convergences and tensions across feminist movements worldwide. The course strengthens students’ abilities to critically engage with complex texts and discussions while expanding their vocabulary and fluency in academic and cultural contexts. By the end of the course, students will not only have advanced their Arabic proficiency, but also developed a deeper critical understanding of feminism as a global, historically situated, and politically contested field of thought and practice. *** Early Bird Price Start at - 1300 NIS - Until 14/06 Reduced Price Start at - 1400 NIS - Until 05/07 Full Price Start at - 1500 NIS - Until first lesson of the course We have made a small change in our pricing structure and are now offering a sliding scale in order to give you the opportunity to donate 100 or 200 shekels when you buy a course.

Tel-Aviv is the Israel most people know and yet it is far from being the face of Israel. Most Israelis, including some Tel-Avivians, have a love/hate relationship with it. They call it “the state of Tel-Aviv”, implying it’s not actually part of Israel, and in some way it’s true - and yet it is the most Israeli creation you can imagine, have you noticed we didn’t write about Jaffa? In this course we will learn together how this city was born, from an off-shoot neighborhood of Jaffa to the metropolis it is today. How did all of this happen? It is the story of those who dreamt about the first “Hebrew city”, what actually happened and who profited from it all? Like the city itself it’s an amazing story - happy and uplifting and at the same time has all the tragedies of Israel/Palestine, though it looks different, because you know… Tel-Aviv has to be special. *** Early Bird Price Start at - 1300 NIS - Until 14/06 Reduced Price Start at - 1400 NIS - Until 05/07 Full Price Start at - 1500 NIS - Until first lesson of the course We have made a small change in our pricing structure and are now offering a sliding scale in order to give you the opportunity to donate 100 or 200 shekels when you buy a course.

Welcome to this exciting and thought-provoking course, where we will delve into some of Israel's most influential, controversial, and famous legal cases! These cases have not only shaped Israel's legal system but have also sparked significant societal debates, influenced cultural narratives, and often stirred heated political discussions. Throughout this course, we will explore the profound impact of the law on society by examining court rulings, analyzing media coverage, and studying cultural reactions to key legal questions and landmark cases. Together, we’ll engage in meaningful discussions, lively debates, and critical inquiries, asking fundamental questions about the role of law in shaping society and its effects on individuals and communities.
