For Judith Friedlander’s seminar, students made a site that compared and contrasted the immigrant experience of two groups: Jews and Mexican. They not only examined the differences in culture, but also changes over time, focusing on the Jewish experience of 19th century New York, and Mexicans’ experiences in contemporary New York. The class worked with ITF Jessica Hammerman, and they have sections on demography, work, religion, gender, families, policy, housing, culture, and politics.
