communities and issues.

his ongoing work to rescue and make accessible the endangered literature of
Yiddish-speaking people
-- Attend a panel discussion on promoting access across boundaries created
by language, gender, and differing abilities
-- Finish up the day with a series of short presentations by NEA members.
