Cornell Video

Attention Cornell Video Users

University Relations is no longer accepting submissions to CornellVideo.

Moving forward, we urge you to use the Video On Demand (VOD) service provided by CIT to host your video content. Instructions for uploading to VOD and general information about the platform can be found at the Video on Demand website.

We are working with CIT to determine the best path toward migrating existing videos in the Cornell Video collection to VOD. Owners of Cornell Video collections will be contacted in the coming weeks to facilitate this effort.

It is our intent to sunset CornellVideo on June 30, 2025. If you have questions or concerns, please contact the Digital Experience team at cornellcast@cornell.edu.

Di Linke: the Yiddish Immigrant Left from Popular Front to Cold War

This conference explores the history, cultural and political activities of the Jewish People’s Fraternal Order (JPFO), a significant component of the Yiddishist immigrant Jewish Left. The JPFO, the Jewish section of the Soviet-oriented multi-ethnic International Workers Order (IWO), was shut down during the Cold War when its funds and organizational archives were confiscated. Much of the material discussed is from the partially-digitized IWO/JPFO archive housed at Cornell’s ILR School Kheel Center.
