- **Event Name**: The Civil War Diary of Emma Mordecai
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 05 Feb, 2026 at 06:00 pm
- **Event Description**: We are honored to host Dr. Melissa R. Klapper, a professor of History and Director of Women's &amp; Gender Studies at Rowan University, for our first lecture of the year! 

This lecture focuses on the topic of Emma Mordecai, a figure living in the antebellum and Civil War South. She was a complicated figure: both a staunch defender of Judaism, and an ardent Confederate nationalist and slaveowner. Her life, as vividly captured in her wartime diary, is a good example of the messiness of history and the ambiguous place of Jews in this region and time period.
