Arab and Jewish Women in Kentucky
Stories of Accommodation and Audacity
In Arab and Jewish Women in Kentucky: Stories of Accomodation and Audacity, Moosnick reveals how Jewish and Arab women have navigated the intersection of tradition, assimilation, and Kentucky's cultural landscape. The stories of ten women's experiences as immigrants or the children of immigrants join around common themes of public service to their communities, intergenerational relationships, running small businesses, and the difficulties of juggling family and work. Together, their compelling narratives give greater voice to Arabs and Jews in America's rural areas.
About the Author
Reviews
"Moosnick weaves together a refreshing blend of life stories and follows a captivating group of Arab and Jewish women through a narrative negotiation between tradition, assimilation, and Kentucky's cultural landscape."—Douglas A. Boyd, author of Crawfish Bottom: Recovering a Lost Kentucky Community
"Nora Rose Moosnick's book, Arab and Jewish Women in Kentucky: Stories of Accommodation and Audacity, grabs readers' attention before they open the book. One does not immediately associate the words 'Arab' or 'Jew' with 'Kentucky,' nor does the combination elicit expectations of affinity. Yet this is precisely what Moosnick seeks to redress in this compelling look at the lives of ten Kentuckians whose lives, she argues, are triply overlooked."—Laura Stemp-Morlock, Ph.D. student, University of Waterloo, The Journal of Southern Religion
"These compelling narratives challenge misconceptions and overcome the invisibility of Arabs and Jews in out of the way places in America."—Digital Journal
