“Sobre-Denton takes on a topic of utmost importance at a time when anti-semitism is on the rise. To analyze these rhetorics through an intercultural lens is novel, linking history, discourse, and identity construction--something useful for intercultural communication scholarship, course development, and individual learning. This book is for anyone looking to understand the nuances of Jewish identity construction within historical, political, social, and cultural context(s).” -- Brandi Lawless, University of San Francisco In this book exploring Jewish-American identities, Dr. Sobre uncovers a series of rich veins of communication that root us within specific cultural, ethnic, historical, and personal dynamics. Impressively, she takes up an often-fraught range of questions about Jewish-American lives. In taking these up, she models nuanced critical intercultural research by engaging across spoken and written contexts with sensitivity and with a vulnerable invitation to challenge received ideas and imagine new possibilities for holding identities in productive tension. -- Keith Nainby, California State University, Stanislaus
