Pictures of Resistance: The Wartime Photographs of Jewish Partisan Faye Schulman - July 15, 2010

Pictures of Resistance: The Wartime Photographs of Jewish Partisan Faye Schulman Oshman Family JCC Taube Koret Campus for Jewish Life 3921 Fabian Way , Palo Alto ~ Room E 104 July 14th- August 14th Opening Reception: Thursday July 15th, 2010 6-8pm Faye Schulman became a war documentarian at grave risk to her own life. During World War II there were approximately 20,000-30,000 Jewish boys and girls who escaped the German ghettos and work camps and formed and joined organized, armed resistance groups. These resistance fighters were called partisans. Faye Schulman was one such partisan. After the ghetto was liquidated and her family murdered she escaped. Faye Schulman was with the Russian Molatava partisan brigade, whose encampment was near her hometown, of Lenin (formerly Poland) from 1942-1944. Along with serving as a doctor’s aid, Schulman also took photographs, developing and printing the two-inch negatives beneath blankets in the forest. Faye Schulman was one of the only – perhaps the only -- Jewish partisan photographer who captured Jewish resistance during the Holocaust. "Pictures of Resistance” has exhibited in ten cities around the world including Zurich, Switzerland and Tel Aviv, Israel. It continues to draw international acclaim and media attention, bringing JPEF?s work to more and more communities “Often we hear of Jews as victims, but the stories portrayed in the exhibit spoke of Jews as heroes," said Brandeis graduate student Jessica Levine. "It gave me a new, different Holocaust story to tell, one of resistance and resilience. It made me feel proud to be a Jew." The exhibition is curated by Jill Vexler, Ph.D. who has extensive experience with Holocaust-related exhibitions, including Letters to Sala: A Young Woman's Life in Nazi Labor Camps, Remembering Luboml: Images of a Jewish Community, and Oswiecim, Ospitzin, Auschwitz: Portrait of Memories, the permanent exhibition at the Auschwitz Jewish Center in Oswiecim, Poland. A filmed interview with Ms. Schulman discussing specific photographs as well as a Teacher/Student Study Guide will be available on the JPEF website, www.jewishpartisans.org. Since 2000, the Jewish Partisan Educational Foundation (JPEF) has recorded the WWII experiences of brave partisan men and women like Faye Schulman, for use in educational materials, such as study and curriculum guides, teacher trainings, short films narrated by Ed Asner, Larry King, and Tovah Feldshuh, an innovative website, -- and now our first exhibition. JPEF, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, based in San Francisco, is the only organization in the world that is solely focused on developing material on Jewish partisans. JPEF also serves as the only resource for partisan material for thousands of organizations and institutions across the country.

Press Conference - May 10, 2010

Victory for Tenants! The Rent Roll Backs Begin! Tenants And Community Members To Hold Press Conference To Welcome The Changes To Page Mill Properties And Vow To See That All The Rents Are Rolled Back East Palo Alto, CA -- On Monday May 10, 2010, at the West Park Apartments located at 5 Newell Court, East Palo Alto, Youth United for Community Action (YUCA) will be holding a Press Conference to celebrate the reduction of rents that have benefited over 400 units in the Page Mill Properties. Beginning at 4:30pm, tenants, community members, and YUCA will come together in solidarity to celebrate a victory in a battle that has been taking place for the last three years. These rollbacks are just a first step in completing our mission for affordable housing for East Palo Alto residents, and tenants vow to continue fighting until all the rents are rolled back to the proper formulas. On May 18th, the East Palo Alto City Council is hoping to look at the final negotiations between the City and Wells Fargo. YUCA plans on turning out tenants to this City Council meeting to give one last giant push in making sure the tenants get what they deserve: Justice! Ever Since Page Mill came into East Palo Alto in 2007, YUCA, tenants, and community members have been fighting against these unjustifiable rent increases. The main goal of this campaign is to roll the rents back for all tenants. Even though Page Mill Properties is now gone, some people are still feeling the sting that Page Mill left by still paying these ridiculous fees. Because of the recent change in ownership, Wells Fargo and Bridge Housing have reevaluated the rates people have been paying and have lowered a lot of tenants’ rents substantially. Even though we are pleased to see that some tenants rents have decreased, we cannot stop fighting until all tenants in the properties are no longer paying unfair rents and fees. *** Photo Opportunities Available!
