The Shoulders I Stand On Cannot Feel Me
My VCUarts senior thesis was a digital archive of love letters written in Yiddish and translated, sent between 1912 and 1914. Both Benjamin and Sadie had emigrated from different parts of Eastern Europe to escape horrifying persecution for being Jewish. This is an ongoing project, and I'm working to construct a narrative of their personal lives and coming-of-age, while noting the historical context and climate they were living in.
