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.

In this course, we will explore key issues concerning women in Israel, while examining the wide range of identities, experiences, and struggles within the society. Through engaging with both personal and collective stories, we will encounter inspiring women, look at feminist movements past and present, and consider how gender intersects with nationality, ethnicity, religion, and class. Together, we will examine how the state and society have shaped the realities of women’s lives, as well as the different ways women have resisted oppression and worked to create change. We will also discuss representations of women in Israeli culture and develop a critical perspective on contemporary challenges. Through discussions, writing tasks, reading and viewing different media, we will deepen and broaden our ability to communicate about complex and relevant topics at an intermediate level of Hebrew.  *** 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.

In this course, we will explore groups, grassroots collectives, and radical queer movements that have emerged in Israel over the years, particularly since the early 2000s. We will examine their development and the ways they have shaped public discourse, as well as the different strategies and modes of resistance they have employed in response to the realities of occupation and oppression in Israel. Through a range of archival materials - such as zines, event invitations, music, and more - we will gain insight into forms of resistance from within the society in Israel. What is their current state? How did they emerge, and where are they today? Throughout the course, students will engage in a variety of assignments aimed at practicing Hebrew through queer methodologies, including creating banners, zines, poetry, and more. This course is for learners who are beyond the basic conversational level and can communicate in Hebrew in the present and past tense and form their own sentences.

In this course, we will delve into Palestinian folk music, such as wedding songs and the various rituals of farmers and shepherds. In the traditional Palestinian wedding, there are different phases, and each phase has its own song, lyrics, and rhythm. We will get to know them and explore together the social roles of these rituals and how music and lyrics reflect them in particular. At the same time, there are other rituals that relied heavily on improvisation, and over time some of these improvised songs became a lasting part of Palestinian culture, passed down across generations. We will learn their stories together. What are the traditional musical instruments? What is the style of writing? The rhythm? Can wedding music be sung at a funeral? We will explore these questions together - reading, watching, listening, and singing!  *** 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.
