Show Notes
-
Noah Barrera has become a serious activist on the Yiddish scene in New York City, where he has been a writer for Yiddish publications, worked in three Yiddish theaters, taught Yiddish language classes, and given talks in Yiddish. Our interview took place last August at the Yidish-Vokh, the week-long Yiddish retreat held each summer and sponsored by Yugntruf - Youth for Yiddish (https://yugntruf.org). Barrera was able to attend the Yidish-Vokh thanks to his successful "gofundme" campaign (see: https://www.gofundme.com/Noyekh-YidishVokh), and there he taught a workshop on Yiddish sex vocabulary based on his research in the archives of the YIVO Institute.
