This event is presented in partnership with the Chicago Humanities Festival.

Dr. Maayan Hilel, Assistant Director of the Crown Family Center for Jewish & Israel Studies and Assistant Professor of Instruction in Jewish & Israel Studies, joins Chicago Humanities to discuss the entwined cultures and cultural transformations of Jewish-Zionist and Palestinian-Arab societies before 1948. Through archival research in Hebrew, Arabic, and English on the minutiae of daily life, she explores daily intercommunal encounters and cultural collaboration between ordinary Arabs and Jews.
