“More Than Friends: Muslim-Jewish Intimacy in Algerian Music” with Jonathan Glasser (William & Mary)

17 Nov 2025 16:00
18:00

Music is a major site for remembering the Jewish presence in Algeria, and in many ways works against dominant discourses of Muslim-Jewish conflict and Jewish outsider status. But digging deeper uncovers multiple ways to read Muslim-Jewish intimacy around music, some of which edge into rivalry, hierarchy, and difference. This talk weighs these multiple interpretations, drawing on historical archives and contemporary memory in Algeria and in France.
